Day 7: Una Lake to Pat's Point
We like to take it easy in the mornings. Mid-morning naps in the hammock are wonderful.
We were paddling and paddling down a shallow stream when I realized that we could probably walk faster than we could paddle and it took way less effort. So, I jumped out of the canoe and pulled it along as I walked through the stream. It was also nice to cool off a little.
Here is Chris in front of Babcock Creek. They no longer allow you to line your canoe through the creek. You now have to portage around it. Woohoo :)
When we finally made it to Pat's Point we found the shelter where Chris and his family have written their names.
Chris looked and looked but couldn't find where he had written his name the last time he was here.
Another beautiful lake!
His & Hers. We bought these his and hers Teva Dozers right before leaving for our trip. We really like our shoes... even if they gave us blisters (our fault for not wearing them before the trip).
Day 8: Pat's Point to Bowron Lake!
It was our last day, so of course we had to spend some time in the hammock that morning.
Navigating the Bowron River is more difficult when you don't know where you are on the map. The posted signs weren't extremely helpful either.
When we got close to the shore we paddled as hard as we could. We had a great time, but we wanted to get off the lake and get to a shower and food!
Celebratory cupcakes :)
I may have gotten a bit of a tan while we were there.
We asked a lady who was sitting nearby if she would take our picture...
After we posed for the picture she asked, "Were you the ones taking all the muscle shots at Una Lake?" No, no.... that wasn't us...
