14 days on Sable Island: Day 6!

Another long day on Sable Is. The weather was great, beautiful and sunny for most of the day with a calm sea, but turned a tad cloudy+chilly in the late afternoon.

South Beach
The South Beach on Sable is very wide and gives you a sense of vast emptiness.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Once again spent the day moving junk, fuel and dead ATVs around. We are almost done with this part of the trip, but still have some extra work moving fuel barrels (jet fuel for the helicopter, diesel for the furnace/generator and gasoline for the ATVs) once the resupply ship leaves, which is likely tomorrow.

I did however, steal a little time for some funky shots of the island….

Intestine!
This is part of the intestine from some dead animal,…dry and very very long!

 

Pipe and pipe
Sable suffers from a lot of erosion from the sea…we have never seen these pipes before.
