This photo was taken in the area where Stuckless Pond flows into the Lomond River. The two bodies of water are eclipsed by the forest.

In the early 19th century, the town of Lomond (named after Loch Lomond in Scotland) was primarily known for its logging industry. Although logging has long since ceased, the river now has many fishing camps along its banks. The residents of Lomond were relocated to other communities during the development of Gros Morne National Park.

Besides fishing, the Lomond River and Stuckless Pond area has many hiking trails from which to view the splendor of the area. Please notice in the lower right corner is a trail's walkway heading into the woods.

A closer view of the wooden walking trail to Stuckless Pond. Many of the easy and moderate trails around Gros Morne National Park include wooden sidewalks through the bogs and potentially muddy areas. There are over 100 km (62 miles) of marked trails in the park that vary from easy to difficult, taking anywhere from a half hour to a full day. For the advanced hiking enthusiast, options exist for extended backpacking trips or orienteering.
