Telegraph Cove and Sointula

Had a cruisey couple of days after making it through the rapids at Green Point, Yacutla and Dent rapids. Very much enjoyed the fresh air, cold clear water, delicious food and beautiful trails at Blind Channel Resort. At Alert Bay, the cultural centre and totem poles were impactful and stunning. Telegraph Cove, the run down to Beaver Cove, the boardwalk, the whale museum and Don Bastian’s tour of his Gallery. And the museum at Sointula with all the helpful information from the volunteers. Ended the week with mooring at Port McNeil and jumping on the bus for some shore time.
