Circumnavigating Vancouver Island 2024

Back in 2003, we circumnavigated Vancouver Island, capturing wonderful memories. Now in 2024 we hope to re-visit this large island, and create some new memories!

A Travel Day

28 June 2014 | Smeaton Bay, AK
George and Sue Stonecliffe
We moved from the Punch Bowl and Rudyerd Arm to the next major bay south in Behm Canal: Smeaton Bay. After the spectacular beauty of Rudyerd Arm, Smeaton was moderate and didn't have a good anchorage. So we headed back to the entrance of the bay where a small island off the mainland gave a small protected anchorage for the night. Today's sunny weather changed to rain when we put the anchor down. Oh, did I mention that we finished the Congo Squares, and tomorrow Elaine plans on baking Brownies? Yeahhhh!
