Rainy Day

We paddled through more spectacular scenery. It was hot and sunny when we started our paddle, then turned cold and windy several hours later downriver. We stopped where 'Crone Creek' flows into the Kongakut and saw 2 eagles' nests on the cliffs above, though no eagles seem to be in residence now.
It got so windy it was hard to paddle so we pulled over to make camp. We set up our tents and the cooking shelter in a dry wash, protected from the wind by the willows. It started raining hard while we were setting up and we had to sponge-dry the inside of the tents once they were up.
