We get a nice start today and paddle for 5 hours making 30 kms and stop near the White Gravel River. Weather was good, fog in the morning but it burned off. We get out of our boats about every 1 ½ hours to stretch and eat. We had some sheltered paddling and the open water was only about 1’ waves along with the swells. I sighted some Bohemian Waxwings, Black/White w/yellow breast warblers, and some other tiny light yellow breast warblers around our pit stops.

There’s a mix of campsites along the coastal hiking trail and some only paddlers can reach. They all have at least a thunder box. Some of the hiking campsites have bear boxes. The park's got a nice map done by Chrismar similar to the one for Quetico and that’s all you really need to use for the park section of the trip.
