Took the ferry over to Gravina Island in hopes of camping and paddling, but we couldn't find any easy way to get to the water without a full on thrash through the rain forest, with a canoe. Seems kinda odd, considering Gravina Island is...........an island. But the rain forest here is so horrifically difficult to get through on your own, let alone dragging a canoe, that we opted to head back to our island (Revillagigedo) and head out to a campground at Settler's Cove.

Driving north on Sarah Palin's "road to nowhere" on Gravina. |

Off the road to nowhere and west on logging roads. |

Ketchikan in the background, what you can't see is the Tongass Narrows in between us and Ketchikan. |

Logging road over growth. |

Back on our island, out at Settler's Cove in Clover Passage. |

Blazing blue sky isn't always the prettiest scene, I kinda like the SE AK mix of clouds, fog, and sun. |
|
Great FS cabin at the Cove with amazing views. |
|
Evening paddle. A four year old likes to paddle, but really aren't contributing to forward movement. |
|
Our apartment faces south, this is west facing, and it was nice to see a sunset again. This is the view from the campsite point. |
|
Morning came with zero winds and glass like waters. |
