The last bits of food have almost been filled in and we are packing food to start the first three weeks into dry bags: one big one for dinner, one big one for breakfast, two bear canisters plus a small dry bag for lunch.

Dave packs one of his home-made bear canisters.

Dinner, Lunch, and breakfast for the first three weeks.

Food for the first re-supply box. It’s over 100 pounds.

Three weeks of food, camping, cooking, clothing and other gear must fit in this in addition to our two bodies.

The boat is a Feathercraft K2 Expedition folding sea kayak. It’s just under 20 feet in length and is quite stable. All that’s left to put into dry bags and get ready for stuffing into the boat is the repair bag and a few odds and ends. We’re getting there!
