Day 15: Butedale to Bishop Bay

Today we had a short run to Bishop Bay, one of my favorite places on the B.C. coast. Two of the boats in the fleet opted to skip Bishop Bay and instead the overnighted in Hartley Bay, a nearby native community.

 The rest of us either moored to the small dock or mooring buoys in Bishop Bay. We enjoyed a long soak in the hot springs…a real treat for everyone.


Accommodations at Bishop Bay Hot Springs. 
The hot springs remain just as I remembered them.
The weather cleared throughout the day. People relaxed and chatted on the dock and onboard. Perfect day.

I’d met the owners of the two other boats in Bishop Bay a couple of years ago at the Seattle Boat Show. They’d come to my talk about cruising Alaska and then we’d chatted afterwards. They recognized me and it was neat hearing about their trip to Alaska last summer.
