Eliason Harbor to Kalinin Bay

Christy

Spent a week at Eliason Harbor in Sitka to reprovision some proteins and fresh foods, top up on diesel and water, do a boat load (literally) of laundry, and explore. Today, we made it to our first anchorage in SE AK: Kalinin Bay. The current was in our favor for the first half of the trip through Olga Straight and against us in the second half through Neva Straight. Moderate swell and strong winds rolled through Salisbury Sound and made the entrance into Kalinin bumpy but no biggie. Even under a thick blanket of fog and mist, this place is beautiful. We can’t get over the smell of the Earth! Stoked to be here and can’t wait to get out and explore some of these remote places.
