August 6, 2017 – Awoke early morning and peeked outside to find ourselves engulfed in fog. Hop down into the skiff to pick up our guests who are ready to go. Magical moments with limited visibility listening to gulls calling and pups moaning for their mothers. So many harbor seals hauled out at the Peapod Rocks. We hugged the rugged coast of Blakely Island before turning into Thatcher Pass for an inter-island route back to Friday Harbor.
