Desolation Sound, BC, Canada

So I've just returned from a 6 night Kayak trip in Desolation Sound.
It was wonderful and fantastic and I now present you with a photo montage of my week:

Lund, BC. Launching two double kayaks and all our stuff for a week


Camp, Night one. Copeland Islands, BC
4 nmi from Lund


 View from Base Camp (nights 3-5) on the Curme Islands, BC
11 nmi from Copelands
That's Otter Island across the fetch, and the Desolation Range beyond


and it was warm enough to swim and go cliff jumping everyday,
after we returned from our daytrips


Just over my head is Mt. Spooner, I kid thee not. 
also got stung by a jellyfish here.


Camp, Night 6, the Copeland Islands

The Last Sunset of our trip

Conclusion it was wonderful, fun, exciting, and relaxing. Would I do it again, maybe. There really wasn't enough to fill the day with paddling, but it was still fun. And we met loads of interesting - though American- people. For being in Canada, the majority of the people we ran into were Statesiders. Which was kind of disappointing, because I happen to like Canada.
