June 2019 Trip Report: Desolation Sound

7/17/2019

 
In 2005 we spent a couple weeks in Desolation Sound with our then-new 25 foot C-Dory. ​We're just back from a three-week return trip in our new-to-us Nordic Tug. Just like last time, this trip was absolutely blissful.
Except for a genuinely minor things: biblical rain, limited and expensive groceries, including $9 expired milk, anchoring mortification, and "holy crap" boating conditions. In other words, the makings of perfect stories. Note: This is a comprehensive (long) post. If you only have a few minutes, start with the Refuge Cove and Toba Wilderness stories. If you're really in a hurry, here are some highlight reels:

  • Toba Wilderness Marina, Grizzly, and Waterfalls
  • Crashing through Malaspina Straights
  • Wonderfully Funky Refuge Cove
