Camping Buddies (Day 5)

Last night team Don’t Tell Mom (DTM) decided to call it an earlier night and joined team Let’s Row Maybe (LRM) on Prevost Island. Keeping with their intent to row early to beat the wind our team set out before LRM, leading the way for a group of 5 rowers and paddlers through the islands off Vancouver Island. Going was slow at times with stiff headwinds and an outgoing tide, so DTM rested on Wallace Island for a few hours to let the current turn. They landed for the night on Gabriola Island, joined shortly thereafter by LRM, their new camping buddies. It’s obvious the two rowboats are evenly matched in speed. Who will keep up the pace in the days to come?

Also, the R2AK website has a nice article (linked here) on the group that spent 2 nights on Dungeness Spit, including quotes from our girls and pictures.
