Our intrepid team stopped in the village of Bella Bella and are in cell service for the first time in days. They provisioned themselves with essentials like toilet paper, sushi, and cookies. 3 times strangers stopped to give them food, the last a First Nation member who have them half a salmon and the other half to an eagle on the pier. Pushing on into Milbanke Sound.
Here’s updates for previous days: When they had to stay in one place on Day 11 they were lucky to find a cabin for those two nights in a place called Skull Cove.
Crossing Cape Caution on Day 12 was an extremely hard day with the current against them. It’s hard to find places to camp because driftwood trees are piled up right down to the high tide line. One night they had to move the tent right before getting swamped.
Last night (Day 13) they stayed in a place called The Trap, where a seal mama showed them a very new seal pup. There were bear tracks on the beach which has happened twice on the trip.
Team Oaracle rooting for you! Excellent progress!!
Yeah–over half way and still going strong! Cheering you on everyday!
