Headwind

We were in no rush to set out from Caribou Cove as the wind was still blowing. It was supposed to be 15 knots but shore line effect seemed to have ramped it up. We stopped at a point with a sand beach and took an extended break as the winds were to diminish in the late afternoon. We set out the solar panels and relaxed until after 3 pm. Once underway we regretted not deciding to camp on the sand beach as we paddled on and on to find a place to camp. We camped in a little bay of conglomerate rock with no beach at Finch Head just before the Moffatt Channel. We found 3 spots to set up tents, ate dinner and slept. I think we paddled about 14 miles.

This was our extended lunch break, solar power battery charging spot.

Our conglomerate rock campsite.. Dan just after we arrived and sunrise the next morning.
