Steller Sea Lions at Dent Rapids |
Work Boats are the only ones we are seeing out here. |
Up an at ‘em early, we depart at 6:00 am to run the rapids
at slack tide. Dreary, overcast and sprinkles of rain...... but...but...the water on Johnson Strait is very calm and we are on the receiving end of about a 2-3 knot push up to Port McNeil.
Lots of Dahls porpoise
and a pod (4) of humpback whales. I am guessing they are all enjoying the
quietness in this heavily used summer recreation area. A "raft" of Stellar Sea Lions in the middle of the Dent Rapids.... Apologies but the photos are a bit foggy as I just didn't want to go outside and get wet!
No Americans this year, so the area is very
desolate…..hmmm “Desolation Sound”. It was good to see that the pod of
humpbacks had a baby with them.
We managed to make a great run up Johnson Strait to Port
McNeil. We showed up and they had so
much room at the North Island Marina we were almost sad for them. Dinner was takeout from Gus’s Bar. Great fish and chips, wraps!
