June 22, Red Sands Beach to Extended Point

After out brutal previous day, Carl and I decided to take a leisurely morning and sleep in a bit. We were on the water around noon, and very quickly ran into a steady headwind getting out of Smith Sound. By late afternoon, we were at Extended Point, a Kayak Bill campsite that we found to have a beautiful and protected beach and a lovely upland tent site. We attempted to push on several miles further, but progress was so slow that we decided to turn around. Extended Point for the night it was!

We reserved the option of eating dinner, then heading on if the wind died, but it was quite late before there was any perceptible change, so we went no further and spent a lovely evening watching the sunset.
