Queen Charlotte Islands Adventure
Page Nine

   Rose Spit...  The very tip is something to see during a storm.  This is a point on the northern tip of the island where two very different sea conditions can be seen at the same time.  The closer I got to the tip of the spit, it definitely got windier as there was less to break the wind for me, and also the view was spectacular.  On one side of me, there were relatively calm seas, and to the other, stormy raging seas with large waves crashing the beach.

   As you can see from the last 3 pictures here(I took them all one after another from the exact same spot) the view to the west was quite a bit different than the one to the east.  All I can say is   WOW!
As this was very close to the end of my journey, I didn't get more than one night out on the spit, but I'd still say the long hike was worth it for the view and the scenery.
