WEDSNESDAY, JULY 1, 2009, LONG AFTERNOON JOURNEY TO SEE J-POD OF RESIDENT KILLER WHALES @ SATURNA ISLAND
We travelled through very calm water North through Haro Strait and into Boundary Passage, between Waldron Island of Washington State's San Juan Islands and Saturna Island of British Columbia's Gulf Islands. As we heading up Haro Strait we got a fantastic view of Mt. Baker, in Washington State 60 miles or 100kms to the East of us.
Once into Boundary Passage there was a strong offshore flow of wind that whipped up the surface, making J-pod's steady progress even more impressive.
