Notes on Salt Spring Island

Hunter and Kai stop by a sign carrying
important directions for ferry passengers.


This was where we really stopped enjoying the book. Salt Spring Island isn’t very well documented in the book, and so we got in after our first 80 mile day to have to wander around town looking for a campsite. There is a private campground there, which is pretty nice, and has nearby showers. We killed a few cans of Colt 45 (the stuff is too gross to drink in bulk) and a gallon of ice cream on the ferry ride to the island, which was a good idea, as we then had enough energy to beast it over the first set of hills into town. After the town there is a second set of hills, with a lake at the top. Very worth going for a dip.
