Logbook: Mary’s Basin

Definitely a new favorite place. The bay itself is pretty if you ignore the clear cut sections (which we find ourselves having to do a lot up here) and calm. The star of the place, however, is the waterfalls. A short paddle up a river at the head of the bay leads to a beautiful waterfall.

The water below the falls is still salty, but above the waterfall, after a slightly sketchy climb up, is a freshwater swimming hole and a second falls. Above the second falls is another swimming hole and then a rocky shallow river.

I found a perfect Livia sized smooth rock bath tub in the first swimming hole. A little slice of heaven. I stayed until I raisined.

On our second trip Carol found his new favorite shower.

  1. The water was warm enough to "rasin" in? Wow.

  2. There is a similar, tho not as pretty, waterfall and coldwater creek in Pipestem Inlet, Barkley Sound. Lucky Creek is the name, if you are not already past the area.
