Puffin Cove Monday, July 30, 2007

Justine called yesterday from Puffin Cove after an exhausting 13 nm paddle. The seas were again very confused and they again had a light headwind and no swell to help. Today they are going to take an off-day as they have had only one entire day off since the journey began and they need time to rest up after 3 very tiring days paddling. They are staying in a log cabin built by a California couple named Carey, who lived off the land and donated the cabin to the Gwaii Haanas park when it came into being. It is a very unique anchorage and the Carey's wrote a book about it titled "Puffin Cove". I've included a photo of Shawna on the west coast of Graham earlier in the trip and Rowland's photo of Woodruff Bay where they were camped a few days ago.
