As if a sun­set on a calm fjord bet­ween many islands was not alre­a­dy a show of per­fect beau­ty. How does it get even more beau­tiful? Dol­phins.

On Isla Canal, we inven­ted the term „three-dimen­sio­nal hiking“ becau­se we were moving in the den­se forest somehow in a dif­fu­se matrix of bran­ches, bam­boo, rot­ten roots and sur­pri­sin­gly lar­ge cavi­ties bet­ween them. A very gra­du­al tran­si­ti­on from the most­ly air-fil­led space at the top and the more or less solid bot­tom. Often less solid.

Good fun!

Accor­ding to the wea­ther fore­cast, we should now have had love­ly sai­ling wind from the south. In rea­li­ty, we are crossing up north against the wind and some rather rough seas. Still 180 nau­ti­cal miles to go to Puer­to Montt. We will see.
