    I captured the photo above as we were cruising along the north side of Pooley Island, after leaving BC’s fabled Fiordland on BC’s North coast, in the heart of the Great Bear Sea. The deep greens and smooth curves of Pooley’s rainforest slopes and valley were less dramatic than Fiordland’s massive snowy peaks, but no […]

  • Dance of the Dolphins Laurie MacBride Β· Eye on Environment
    We saw no whales on our boat trip this past summer, but some of their smaller cousins put on a surprise performance for us on one very memorable morning. We were anchored in Tenedos Bay, a popular spot in Desolation Soundβ€”a place we would never have expected to see whales or dolphins. So you can […]

  • Cozy in the Cold: Sea Otters Laurie MacBride Β· Eye on Environment
    With another Arctic front heading our way, I find myself thinking about sea otters – specifically, how well suited (literally) they are for winter. Their incredibly thick, waterproof coats must be cozy even on unseasonably chilly days. Sea otters have the densest fur of any animal on earth, which is why they were hunted almost […]

    Northward on our ten-week Great Bear Sea trip last summer, the first β€œnew-to-us” stopover was Philip Inlet, a small notch on the east shore of Fitz Hugh Sound just south of Addenbroke Island. As you can see from the photo above, it was raining steadily when we arrived, making it challenging to spot the narrow […]

    Two days after we left Philip Inlet last June, we reached our second β€œnew-to-us” anchorage – a secluded little hurricane hole in the Kittyhawk Group of islands in the Hakai Recreation Area. The spot we’d chosen was guarded by an even narrower entrance than at Philip. Luckily it was low tide when we entered, so […]
