Today: 7.33 mi
Trip: 986.40 mi
On the water at 7 this morning. Forecast is calling for a blow and we wanted to cross onto Simpson Island before things picked up too much. We took a stiff headwind heading around Frasier Point and behind Hope and Armour Islands. We came out to McNab Harbour and decided to stop. Things were picking up quicker than we wanted and at least here we had a view of open water.
It was only 10 AM so we rationed out food and made a plan for the next few days. By noon the waves were pushing 4 ft. The fog soon rolled in and we felt pretty isolated. A couple of jetskies came flying by. Watching them jump the waves was quite the entertainment although I have to say that the landings looked less than comfortable.
We walked over some rocks to look at the interior of the harbor while eating dinner. As it was cooking we were visited by a moose!!! Our first of the trip and it was quite the treat. We watched as a cow on her two little ones waded and then swam down the harbor. They never even looked our way and we just watched in awe as they wandered on their way.
