Canada!
We have entered a new country. It is a strange thing to cross an international boarder under your own power, but Canada we are happy to be with you!Weather is the big buzz right now…it has been intense. We have been getting pounded by one low pressure system after another.
Something like a 988-millibar low in the Inside Passage easily produces 50-knot winds and 15-foot seas. Wretched conditions for our little boats; we see the less extreme ends of this pounding when we are able to paddle in more protected waters, but it is not uncommon to spend a 24-hour period hauled out on shore…waiting for the weather.
Notwithstanding, our spirits are extremely high. The footage continues to exceed our expectations. This 3-month expedition is proving to be an amazing adventure.
Our best,
J.J. and Josh
