Today: 18.7 mi
Trip: 473.86 mi
So things this morning looked much better compared to the last two. We learned our lesson in Marquette about taking off too soon after a wave event and decided to take a long breakfast to let the final swells have their time.
As we started to pack up, three solo kayakers rounded the bend and landed in our bay for a quick snack. We chatted for a bit and joked that we would be playing leap frog since we were both bound for Duluth. After they left we finished packing up, ate lunch, and with eager paddles we made our move.
All of the beaches along Misery Bay looked worn away from the pounding waves. We rounded Willard Point, went by Sleeping Bay, and then to Fourteenmile Point where the neatest old lighthouse in desperate need if repair. From there we paddled around Tenmile Point and Bay. We camped on the next sand beach south which yielded a stunning view of the Porcupine Mountains. Not too bad for a half day paddle.
