Entering Reid Harbor, Stuart Island on Saturday morning

All tied up at the State dock in Reid Harbor Saturday morning. Only 2 other boats at the dock.

First time setting foot on Stuart Island!

First order of business - using the facilities - Oh No! The facilities are out of service! Fortunately Prevost Harbor facilities are nearby.

Prevost Harbor dock is more full

A steep decent from the Reid Harbor Trail down to the beach

Water is still Off as of April 22nd

My only guess is that someone was trying out their metal detector around the camp ground!

The marsh at the head of Reid Harbor

Campsites down at the beach are reseved for human-powered boaters only as part of the Cascadia Marine Trail System. Have always wondered, if I anchor out then row to shore in the dinghy with my tent, does that count? Probably not.
