High Island harbor.

High Island is one of my favorite anchorages. It's a place that signifies that I have arrived at the cruising grounds and great destinations are now only a few hours sail from one to the next.
It is a nearly perfect place. Uninhabited islands, no houses in site, an excellent quarry and a cool old shack, nice sandy beaches, tide pools, clams to dig, excellent mussels and great swimming. It can be a noisy zoo of rafted powerboat daytrippers on the warm weekends but they all go home in the evening. Weekdays are pretty quiet.

Old shack, High Island.

This is the old shack on High Island. I don't know when it was built but I figure around the 20's or 30's. Eventually it was abandoned but later fixed up again, probably by some long haired kids in the 70's. I was a long haired kid back in the 70's myself. They left an old National Geographic behind from around '71. If anyone knows the true story it would be facinating to hear it.
