Waterfall number 52 in Green Inlet
Our Raft at the head of Green Inlet
A 25 nm trip from the head of one inlet to the next. Two black bears and a humpback whale spotted enroute. Last chance for emails and phone calls as we will be out of range until we hit the Kitimat area. The books say that this inlet has a beautiful waterfall at the head and that there is not very good anchorages inside the inlet (just at the start of the inlet) but this bay is called “Horsefly” Cove, so we opt to not stay there but go to the very end to see what’s up. There is a waterfall enroute, so the tourists pull their boats in front of it to get a postcard photograph taken. There is no waterfall at the head of the inlet, but rather an entrance to a lagoon that is spectacular inside and has a beautiful river at the head of it. We suspect that the author of the boating book saw the over falls at low tide and thought it was a waterfall? We enter just before dinner and spend about an hour inside the lagoon (we don’t want to get stuck with the tide change) There is still snow on the hills and too many spectacular waterfalls to count. The boys agree that this is one of the best lagoons they have been in. After a nice spaghetti dinner, we play some cards, watch some movies and off to bed.
