Got back from Goose Bay a few days ago. A lot of activity on the highway with the widening and paving. It blew a gale the morning I left to come back and the night before. It was also really warm, like around 23 degrees. And that was around midnight. So weather wise, coming back, you couldn't ask for much better; warm and no flies. Cartwright access road going as far as the junction is in bad need of a new top. It is the oldest part of the highway and therefore I would expect for it to be in  worse condition compared to other sections of the highway.
