Trip Log: Outrigger Canoe Sailing the California Channel Islands

Step 27Amphibians Sleep Ashore This Time

Amphibians Sleep Ashore This Time
We paddled and sailed up the coast, but the cave was still a few miles away. It was time to look for a spot to land. This photo shows what a good landing spot looks like from the water. We had a landing permit from the Nature Conservancy, who own this end of the island. No fires and no camping are allowed here.
We had a good anchor with us and room to sleep on the boat, but our sleeping gear was stowed below in such a way that it would be a big pain in the neck to set up.
So we'd eat dinner and take a long nap on shore. Not camp. In the future we'll sleep on the boat anchored out like good ecocentrics.
The islands are well taken care of. There was no sign of trash or any fire scars. It's pretty much as
mother nature and human history have left it.
