From the Montreal Gazette: One of the few places in Quebec to find juniper (a.k.a. eastern red cedar) in its natural habitat is the Eardley Escarpment in Gatineau Park, where a forest of 15,000 grows, with the oldest tree about 300 years old. This is also a good place to observe the rare juniper hairstreak butterfly (Mitoura gryneus), whose caterpillar feeds only on juniper leaves.

GuideGatineau previously listed upcoming events linked to a Google calendar. I found it onerous to maintain though and combined with technical difficulties that lead me to hide it away. If however, some sweet volunteer wanted to take on the task of keeping a Google calendar up to date, I'd be only too happy to bring it back. If you're that magnificent volunteer please send me an email.Meta
