Got the rangers boated up this AM and shipped 'em all off to Moose Pass. Some to go E and some to go W. We took the motorboat and finished off the campsite rounds.
39 and 41 are in swamps. Campsite 40 is really nice and on its own private (and semi clear) lake. 42 is on an island and pretty nice but heavily used. 51 has lots of space and a nice view S towards the ridge. Right around the corner from a cottage. 45 is exposed but is otherwise a gorgeous, multi-tiered affair. 44 is in a great section of the lake with an abandoned cabin on it but is never used so not a lot of tent pads, space in general, and quite a climb up to the site itself. 43 has slopy tent pads and is also underused. To sum up: 45, 51 and 42 are the tops on 3 Narrows.
Saw another kind of water lily today that i've never seen before. It looks like it might be the bloom of the elliptical, slimy lily pads. Flowers about 1" across with small dark red aster like petals except not as dense and with golden leaves cupping the petals. Couldn't slow down fast enough in order to get a picture.
Went back to the cabin in a light rain and shared lunch with Rascal the Beagle. She looked so sad that we took her out hiking with us for the afternoon. We met the rangers N of site H21 after having a little snooze with a view. Ate lots of blueberries while on the trail but otherwise didn't do much of anything today, especially considering how underused the sites are on this lake. Spaghetti tonight, hot and filling!
