[Paddlewise] Nootka Sound

<<<.
I've been off the list for over a year but have returned and was
wondering if anyone has any TR's or experiences
paddling in Nootka Sound. Thinking of a trip in July focusing in the
Nuchalitz area. Have all the appropriate books on
the area. Any comments or info appreciated.

Make sure you check out any First Nation requirements, depending on the
precise area. Also, approaching the Nuchalitz from the open sea in a
moderate to large swell can be intimidating to find your way in safely
from seaward - just look at a chart. And, if you do get a chance to poke
out to the open side of Nootka, there is an awesome beach on the
northwestern side that is pure heaven. If you need further info, give me
a shout back channel and I'll hook you up with a guide via e-mail who
knows the area.
