The Strait of Juan de Fuca

On an exceptionally clear and still day! Looking NNW from the bluffs near Dungeness Spit, Washington state. We were told the gray whales were migrating and were often visible just off shore here, but we missed them. The land on the skyline is Vancouver Island, British Columbia, Canada, but to the left of that, the next landfall would be Kamchatka!

Outbound in the Strait of Juan de Fuca

Telephoto view from the shoreline outside Sequim, Washington state, USA. Looking north across the strait; the mountains beyond are Vancouver Island, British Columbia, Canada. The strait is _very_ seldom this clear! We had extraordinary weather this trip. The beach in the foreground is Dungeness Spit, with its apparent distance considerably foreshortened by the telephoto view.
