Dawsons Landing, Rivers Inlet, BC

This is the area that Pat's mom and step-dad lived and ran a fishing resort. We made a trip up here in about 1980 and Pat caught a 65 pound salmon.
Yesterday we saw about 30 humpback whales. They even jumped out of the water but we weren't close enough to get a picture. Also had some dolphins riding our bow wake. We're looking for a place to do some salmon fishing now. The weather has turned nice again. Sun is out today, about 65 degrees. This past week we've seen several black bears. At one place there was a mother with two grown cubs, one of which was brown. At another place there was a black bear that was brown on the sides and black down the middle of it's back. It was so big I thought it was a grizzly.
We will slowly continue heading south but don't plan on being back in Puget Sound until Sept. Hope everyone is well. Russ, Pat, Maddie
