Ok, this place is really beautiful. Like… mountain views, biiig waterfall, etc.

We wanted to stay anchored here, but after even just 15 minutes we were miserable.

Within minutes we had a swarm of them in the cockpit. You’d kill 2 and 5 more would show up. It was crazy! Deer flies are big and they BITE. They look like wasps. It’s quite disgusting.

So we decided not to stay there, and moved along to Butedale.

Idk how many times we said ‘I’m SO thankful we’re here’ at Butedale, but it was several. Haha.

We made the right choice for us on this particular day.
