Takatz Bay is beautiful! (And we were here for three days, so there will be a whole lot of photos!) We anchored near the waterfall on the south west side of the anchorage and as soon as we were set, we took the dinghy out exploring. The water is icy…

We left Sitka on Tuesday morning and once through Sergius Narrows we decided to stay in Deep Bay. We put out crab traps and made dinner and didn’t really take any photos. The weather looked like this: Inside Deep Bay: No thanks, I’d rather be in the boat: We fished…
