The morning began with heavy fog in Idaho Inlet. Along the way groups of sea otters were spotted in the water. The fog began to lift as we approached the head of the fjord. Our plan for the morning was a combination of hiking and kayaking. The weather was clear and sunny once the fog completely lifted. The hikers enjoyed traveling along a bear path that lay next to the salmon stream in the picture. Several distinct bear prints were seen along the path. The walks poked in and out of the forest and on to the grassy land of the tidal flat.
The kayakers enjoyed views of eagles as they flew overhead and harbor seals swimming nearby.
For lunch the crew organized a beach barbecue on shore that was enjoyed by everyone. The rest of the afternoon was spent travelling out of Idaho Inlet where sea otters, harbor porpoises and a humpback whale were seen.
