Day 95 Heywood Island
Left the beauty of Killarney Bay in gray skies. (First 2 pics) The sky was still impressive last night, but not quite as large and encompassing as last night. Rain threatened most of the 2 1/2 hour trip to Heywood Island. We anchored in Browning Cove (third pic) in a light shower. When we got here, we were all alone, by 5 pm, we had 11 neighbors. After anchoring, we spent hours planning our trip through the Northern Bay. Nothing else to do when it's overcast and cold with storms looming. Not in the mountains today. These islands are flat with dense, short pine forests. The guide books have promised us bear sightings and wolf howling in this area. The advertised "beach" in Heywood is a 10' wide dirt area on shore with a picnic table. We can now understand why Florida's beaches are so popular with Canadians if this is our competition. The next stop is the town of Little Current tomorrow for supplies and local knowledge.
