It’s going to be a long run today, with 80 miles to cover, which means we have to get an early start. At first light we have the anchor up and are underway for Corney Cove, in Meyers Passage. It’s raining, but once again we have flat calm seas.
As we head into Wright Sound a Humpback Whale appears right on our bow! I was able to get this shot through the windshield.
Heading into McKay Reach I noticed this barge. I’m fascinated that the rocks maintain their perfect pyramids. It looks very precarious, but Al assures me it’s all very stable….amazing.
In McKay Reach I spotted another whale feeding along the shore.
With all the rain we’ve been having, the waterfalls were really spectacular.
As we got into Tolmie Channel we spotted another whale. I was only able to get a shot of his tail, however.
We were fortunate to have the current going with us most of the way, and consequently we made Corney Cove in just under 10 hours. Normally, we would have kept going to Quigley, in Laredo Inlet, but this year we’re taking it easier and enjoying it more. We’ve never anchored in Corney Cove before, since we’re usually headed in the opposite direction in Meyers Passage. Corney was pleasant, but not memorable.
