Effingham Island

N 48 52.627, W 125 18.483
Effingham Island, Barclay Sound

Yesterday we did some provisioning between the rain drops. This morning before leaving we filled our water tanks. Right now we are anchored in a small bay next to Effingham Island. We have it all to ourselves. Barclay Sound is a popular place to go cruising on the west side of Vancouver Island. On the other side of Effingham Island is the remains of a First Nations village. We hiked there when we visited here many moons ago. You can see the midden and where the long house was. The trail is rough, indicated by bits of colored string and yarn on branches and tree trunks.

Tomorrow we leave for Westport, WA and to check back into the US. It is about 140 miles so we will arrive sometime on Friday.

No worries,
SV Windarra
