Ocean Falls

Ocean Falls, at the head of Cousins Inlet, is pretty much a gost town. Until it closed a quarter century ago, the Crown Zellerback mill was the
second largest mill on the coast. Today there is a fish farm where they raise salmon smolts for the many fish farms we have seen on this trip, a few business's left, a dam that supplies power to Bella Bella and Shearwater, and a small marina. But as dreary as that sounds, it's really pretty here. The mountins go straight up from the water, there are crab, shrimp, and fish to catch, and the sun is out today and it must have been close to 75 here today. There is power on the dock and the water is very good, which is not the case at alot of the places we've been. Reguards from the Aye Aye Sir!
