The weather forecast called for 20kts + wind gust to start around 3:00 p.m. Instead of paddling up and back down, the group opted for a car shuttle to Walker Park. This gave us a little extra time to explore Pirates Cove and Mill Creek. We were able to travel well into Mill Creek, past the road bridge and then some.
The launch/landing point at Walker Park is challenging at high tide. The path goes to a rock pile and there was no beach.
No other boat traffic, eddies were mild on the flood, and calm weather with just a little rain. No significant wildlife, but lots of great conversation and a very relaxing day on the water.
