Airship | Spicer Islands

First, a few photos I haven't posted between Kah Shakes Cove, Dixon Entrance (nice and calm), and one night spent in Prince Rupert (yay sushi!):

We left Prince Rupert early this morning and bypassed the turnoff to Grenville Channel, opting for another trip down what we call "the outside of the inside." Instead of heading for Captain Cove as we'd originally thought, we continued around to the Spicer Islands this time. We felt a tiny bit of swell as we transited Beaver Passage just before turning into the anchorage, and just before that we had a humpback surface about 20 feet from Airship (YIKES?)...we spotted two more ahead and just made sure to go slowly past. There were a zillion birds in the area as well...fish for everyone!

We anchored in a gorgeous, well-protected spot between Spicer Island and South Spicer Island. Kevin immediately took the Mavic up for some aerial shots while the light was perfect.
