[If you want the beginning of the story, read part 1 here, part 2 here, part 3 here, part 4 here, part 5 here, part 6 here, part 7 here, and part 8 here]. It rained all night and continued throughout the final day. We decided to spend one more day in the area around camp, and then to spend the following [...]
[If you want the beginning of the story, read part 1 here, part 2 here, part 3 here, part 4 here, part 5 here, part 6 here, and part 7 here]. It was time to go watch some bears. While not as early as planned, we got an early start and set out shortly before low tide. Pack Creek is a [...]
[If you want the beginning of the story, read part 1 here, part 2 here, part 3 here, part 4 here, part 5 here, and part 6 here]. The next day we enjoyed a relaxing morning, discussed our daily plans (this became a theme of our trip - we often discussed plans without making concrete decisions about what we would [...]
