| Rain Shadow Kayakers Fresh Water Bay to Salt Creek June 1, 2009 |
This is one of the prettiest paddles on
the Peninsula. It is five miles one way.
There are solid cliffs the whole way.
It was a spectacular day. Little wind.
Sunshine. Swells coming into the strait
from the Pacific Ocean were moderate.

Below, we see Tongue Point come into view.
Below, rounding the sea stack at Salt Creek we land at the beach for lunch..
The hazy stuff in the pictures was
the sun evaporating water from the
beach as the tide receded.

We were being watched by seals perched on mussels.
