Geography and geology

Jacques-Cartier National Park is located in the Laurentian Mountains along the Jacques-Cartier River valley, to the west of Quebec Route 175. Jacques-Cartier is a 30 minutes drive from Québec City. Grands-Jardins National Park is located to the northeast of the park, while the Laurentian Wildlife Reserve is located to the north. The park is also located near the Canadian Forces military base CFB Valcartier.

 

The park contains several glacial landforms such as drumlins and moraine. The most prominent glacial landform in Jacques-Cartier National Park is the Jacques-Cartier Valley (French:Vallée de la Jacques-Cartier). The U-shaped valley is 550 metres (1,804 ft) deep and was formed during the last glacial period.

 

Flora and fauna

The plateau consists mainly of coniferous trees such as the black spruce, while the valley consists mainly of deciduous trees such as sugar maple and yellow birch. The invasive Japanese knotweed has also appeared in the park's boundaries.

 

The wildlife is typical of a boreal forest. Animals that can be found in the park include moose, caribou, white-tailed deer, gray wolf, red fox, the Canada lynx, the black bear, river otter, porcupine and the Canadian beaver. Atlantic salmon, brook trout and the Arctic char can be found in the lakes and in the Jacques-Cartier river. The park is also visited by more than 100 species of birds.

TGV Sud-Est PSE 01 auf Abschiedstournee zu mehreren Betriebswerken in Frankreich, hier auf dem Weg von Paris nach Bischheim auf der LGV Est-Européenne. Für diese Gelegenheit erhielt er auf den Triebköpfen wieder seine ursprünglich von Jacques Cooper entworfene Lackierung, das berühmte Orange, zwei Wagen schlüpften außerdem zurück in's Atlantique-Outfit, sodass der Zug nun alle Varianten mit dem aktuellen Carmillon vereint.

 

Au revoir Patrick! Rame TGV PSE 01 Sud-Est sur la marche 753123 de Paris vers Bischheim en livrée orange/carmillon/atlantique pour la tournée d'adieu, rendant hommage au design de Jaques Cooper... Grand bravo et merci à ceux qui on rendu possible ce projet (notamment Benjamin Huteau et les équipes de Philippe Lucchese au Technicentre Sud-Est Européen) et à toute la SNCF et Alstom!

Plusieurs connaissent Jacques. il est devenu un ami en 2015 lorsque nous sommes allés à Bordeaux . Durant cette même rencontre nous sommes aussi allés à St-Emilion . Dans quelques jours vous verrez une autre photo de lui... allez voir sa galerie. il a de très belles photos et comme moi il aime beaucoup le Québec et la nature.

 

I met Jacques in Bordeaux in 2015. The photo on the right was in Bordeaux and the photo on the left was taken in St-Emilion where we went for a visit. In a few days you will see another photo of Jacques. Don't hesitate to visit his gallery. He had wonderful photos of many places including Quebec. And like me he loves nature.

Like many of the restaurants in my area Jacques begins an outdoor service in the spring when weather starts to get warmer. They do a good business in the summer months but in the Fall when the cooler weather arrives, the tables and chairs are put away and the waitstaff moves indoors. To me it has become the urban equivalent of the change in color and eventual falling of the leaves-- a marker of the passing seasons.

During the ''Bright Brussels 2024'' festival of lights, the Cinquantenaire Arcades were transformed by an amazing sound and light show.

 

The Cinquantenaire Arcades were commissioned by King Leopold II in 1880 to commemorate the 50th anniversary of Belgium's independence, but were only completed 25 years later.
