Chapple Inlet to Alston Cove

Today we head for Laredo Inlet and return to Alston Cove, last visited in 2019.

The weather was bright and sunny, with totally calm seas. The best kind of travel day.

there is calm and then there is this kind of calm

Departing Chapple Inlet, we saw a deer posing at Doig Point. Karen swears we saw the same deer in the same place in 2022. Interesting. This deer waited until we were in good visual range, pranced out of the woods, and then stood there in her glory for adoring fans.

Exchanging glances with the locals

As we turned left into Camaano Sound and the start of Laredo Channel, we could see Haida Gwaii 80 miles away.

We remembered Alston Cove fondly from our prior trip and were interested to see the fish weirs at the head of the bay again. Alston has a cozy feeling due to the narrowish entrance,  despite being spacious once inside, with a pretty valley at its head.

No boats were seen in Laredo inlet as we made our way towards Alston Cove and we had the Cove completely to ourselves for the evening.
