Aug. 13 – Land Ho!
We headed south in a misty rain. Princess Royal Island is known as the habitat of the Spirit Bears, a race of blonde-colored black bears, elusive and seldom seen. The writers’ of a blog; Another Side of this Life, were lucky to see and photograph a Spirit Bear near Klemtu, a Native village further south along the channel. We encountered choppy seas and fog crossing Milbanke Sound and we were happy to spot Ivory Island Lighthouse at the entrance to the channel leading to Bella Bella and Shearwater, B.B.
You can tell the wind was brisk by the attitude of Canada’s Maple Leaf Flag.
