Hiking: Mountain Lake, Orcas Island, WA


Matthew, Rhodora, Rhoda, Noel, JP, Rudy, and I hike around Mountain Lake while Perla and Noah guard the cars. It was a little rainy but we were under trees for most of hike. Fish were jumping and squirrels were out but the only bears were in the stories.

Paddle: Limantour - Millers Point


Fred initiates a great paddle that includes David, John, Rich, Rich, Michael, Ray, Paula, and Gordon. It took me 1:25 to drive the 48 miles up from San Francisco to Limantour. I stopped at the Lagunitas Grocery and Deli to get a turkey sandwich on the way out. We launched at 11:00 with thoughts of Almere Falls. The sun never quite made a show. We stopped at Millers Point for lunch afterwards we headed back north. On the return trip we stopped by Fred's Sink Hole.

Ferry Pt - Angel Island


Jesse initiated a paddle leaving from Ferry Point and circumnavigating Angel Island. 15 BASKers showed and launched. We passed many fishing boats on the way to Angel Island, the Halibut has been very popular as there are no salmon. We decided to go around clockwise and we caught some wind and waves rounding Pt Blunt. We shared lunch at Fort Reynolds and met up with a class from Sea Trek. The return crossing was uneventful. We headed for Pyramid for a beer to cool off on a hot day.
