Day 2-3 brought on a constant wetness that would last all the way to Vancouver. We awoke at Sand Point camp to a rather persistent drizzle. We ate and packed slowly and in the end, made the call to head back south to Norwegian Beach and explore the area south of it.
Staying dry under the tarp. |
Wonderful day on the Olympic Coast |
Remember those basketball sized rocks. It was much easier when they were dry. "Black death" and snot rock covering everything |
Our first other person in one day. Jeans and a floaty. He wasn't much of a talker. |
Camera lens was hard to keep dry. |
Norwegian Beach |
Camped at the Starbucks Mine Camp on the second night. It was a little more tucked into the forest and provided a little more cover. |
Here's my camp. Glad I had my bivy sack because it started raining side ways with a heavy mist. |
Towards the end of the evening, we had to lower J's tarp and build him a wall so that the rain and mist would blow under his tarp and get his down bag wet. |
Definitely didn't have enough whiskey for these kinds of conditions. Hang out under the tarp. |
Hunkered down under the lowered tarp. |
Ahh, warm food and drink. This thing is a champ. |
Rock dam near Starbucks Creek |
The next day we explored farther south towards the Chilean Memorial. |
Primo campsite on the top of this little headland. Definitely would needs a tent though. |
Checking out other campsites. Lots of cool arrangements due to the driftwood. |
More rope climbing. |
Seal remains |
