Looking south down Newcastle Passage, from Shaft Point.

And here's that Shaft-Point area seen from the water, on May 7, 2011:

















..and looking down the channel, a busy day for such a dreary cloudy day.
- outrigger canoe, boats, plane, etc. And a Sri Lankan cruise-ship too.

A couple photos of Shaft Point on Newcastle Island, with a ferry in front of it. Shaft Point is the grassy area just off the ship's bow in the 1st photo (and mid-ships on 2nd photo) where there are garry-oak and arbutus trees.
- seen from Sugarloaf Mountain.
