Driving along the Labrador Coastal Drive, you can stop and view the fascinating rapids that form along the fast moving Pinware River gorge in Southern Labrador. The reddish brown rocks that line the banks of the Pinware River are mainly composed of a type of quartz that was formed around the Proterozoic Era.
The Pinware River once made crossing to other communities very difficult depending on the swiftness of the river but in 1965 a bridge was built over the river. This bridge made it possible for people to travel back and forth to the other surrounding towns and villages.
