Test paddled 2 different Keewaydin 17s at Swift in the strong winds.

PEI trip day 3
Horrible forecast so we bugged out early via the inside passage.



Sounds like we’d be windbound for days if we stayed.

Enjoyed paddling the channels and passages, and didn’t mind a rough section.



Beaverstone bay was nice, but the long straight Collins Inlet passage gets a bit monotonous even with spectacular cliffs etc.





Some fun bouncy swells near the river mouth at the end.

We met a group of experienced kayakers who ventured out past protection yesterday, and 4 of 5 capsized and got washed into shoals.

We camped at George Lake and got pounded with thunderstorms that night.

C • Pics 2

The wind was forecast to blast in the afternoon so we tootled along the coast via protected amazing rocky channels in the islands and camped early- spectacular site in Bear bay.








A bit hairy getting around one exposed point, so we portaged behind Big Rock.





We only shared the huge expanse of Bear bay with one other group. Must come back with a better weather window- so much to explore!

Brought the tri suit and had quite a nice swim. It was warm enough I didn’t really need the suit but nice to bob along on the surface.

Phillip Edward Island trip.

Beautiful calm conditions. Islands were gorgeous.







Arrived late in the busy Solomon Island area, and ended up with a site near a ruined houseboat/fishing camp- lots of trash, but nice sunset and stars.

C • PEI?! 6

Missed the daily storm. Too soggy for extras.

Commute with Adventuredog.
