Churchill Falls, has a population of approximately 730 people who are probably there as it’s a company town for the Churchill Falls Generating Station. This station is one of the largest underground hydroelectric powerhouses in the world and they provide renewable energy to millions of consumers throughout North America. They have 11 turbines with a generating capacity of 5,428 megawatts. We wanted to do a tour but shockingly, the tours were sold out. I don’t know to whom as we were the only tourists there. They have no campgrounds so you can park your camper outside the Churchill Inn. This was a huge building and held a motel, restaurant, library, school, rink, Canada Post and a grocery store.

the Falls that we were going to hike to but the bugs were horrible, trail pic below 
Trail to the Falls which we did not do as the mosquitoes and black flies were crazy! I walked down the trail quite a ways and Clint went further but neither of us saw these Falls.
We only stayed one night in Churchill Falls, not much to do here particularly when the bugs are so bad. We haven’t even see bugs this bad in Northern Ontario and we thought it was bad there !
Next stop Goose Bay !

It’s a cute town, very much a northern town with so much beautiful landscape around it. The skeeters and deer fllies as we call them in Michigan always attacked me severely, I detest them! Than ks for sharing the beautiful woods up there, guys!
