We left town at about 9 am and drove to the bottom of Colliers Bay where we dropped off our kayaks and gear and left Tony on guard. I, Clyde, and Hazen drove up to the predetermined take-out location, left two of the cars there, and came back to the put-in. It was 11 am by the time we got on the water, and so we had our lunch at Turks Gut after just an hour on the water.
With fuel in our bellies we set out again and continued up to South Point and then did a small crossing across Brigus Bay over to North Head. From there we made our way to Grassy Point where we had a little break out of our boats and scouted around for potential future campsites.
From there we continued around the headland at Burnt Point and had a lot of fun playing in the swell at The Arch and then continued down to Cupids.

With about 4.5 hours on the water and another hour of stopped time there was lots of opportunity to take pictures. I actually managed to snap off 98 of them. Here's some of them:

What a day we had. The pictures don't really do it justice.
Your pictures are fine Dean. Its always nice to see the different perspectives others take on the same scenes.

Great pictures Dean! You've captured it all, the fun, the excitement, and yes, even the fear of hoping to get away from those rocks :)
