Ghostly Islands on Foggy Lake Superior |
Our first night in
Superior was very chilly. We woke up to a lot of fog in the park but packed up
our day bags for an afternoon of hiking just the same.
Essential bug nets, very fashionable. |
We checked out the
Agawa Rock pictographs, a slippery climb to the bottom of a cliff where historical
Native Canadian pictures displayed on the rock face.

We followed the coastal
track to a lookout point where we could see some of Lake Superior above the
fog.

I took Bill back to
the camp site to relax for the rest of the afternoon while I headed out to
Katherine Cove to keep hiking the Coastal Track. The Coastal Track stretches
65 km of coast along Lake Superior. The whole track can be done in 5 days or
shorter segments can be done as one way day hikes.
I hiked the segment
of the track between Katherine Cove and Sand River and back.
The track consisted
of eerily foggy beaches and challenging terrain over rocky shores.
After a short nap
back at the site, we made pasta for dinner when the fog finally started to
clear from the bay.

As the sun set we
at last got some stellar views of the coast.
The Fog is Gone! |
