Pos: 65.4453,-167.5659 Loc: before Kanauguk river Acc: Hilleberg Keron 4 tent no paddling today Day number three of our unlucky long beach stay…it still looks like FOUR days off to make us both happy to continue.

Pos: 65.4453,-167.5659 Loc: before Kanauguk river Acc: Hilleberg Keron 4 tent no paddling today Wind up to 20 knots from SE, and seas as lumpy I have not seen them since Naknek, plus a rainy drizzle – no way to paddle today. We stayed inside until 11.30, and in a drizzle gap, we decided to […]

Pos: 65.1753,-166.9404 Loc: before Port Clarence Acc: Hilleberg Keron 4 tent no paddling today One more strong 20+knots headwind day to sit out. Nothing exciting happened, the usual stuff to pass such a day like reading, cooking, small repairs, talk and a hike around our doorstep lake.   Tomorrow, we are supposed to be able […]

Pos: 65.1753,-166.9404 Loc: before Port Clarence Acc: Hilleberg Keron 4 tent no paddling today All night we had a shaking tent from 20+ knots northerly winds, which increased during the day to around 25 knots – no day to paddle, neither just by myself nor inside the “shelter” of the big bay. So we slept […]

The night was clear, and accordingly cold. But we did […]
