The West Coast really in magic, this mist came in and made it seem like we were the only ones there.

Oli needed to turn his back to the view to focus on dinner

Sunset on the West Coast lasts such a long and glorious time. Always end up with way too many photos

Was very hard to go to bed when that's the view

Oli at camp as the last of the sunset fades

Oli enjoys the river. It's not actually necessary to get this wet on the trip, although depending on flow you should probably anticipate wet boots!
