How could we not stop somewhere named Moiles Harbour, even if they do spell it wrong. This harbour was a major logging center for the North Channel, but of course is no longer used for that purpose. There are numerous old pilings that although are close to shore, are just above or just below the water. During our paddle around the harbour we found the old iron rings for holding the log rafts and even came across an old boat.
Considering our next stop was to be a 54 nautical mile run to Hilton Beach, we decided on a very early departure. And of course this would be the time to hook a telephone pole sized log from the bottom. We figured this would be a possibility knowing this was a logging harbour. But having this happen in other years we had no problem dislodging it and got on our way by 6:00 am and were rewarded with a wonderful sunrise as we departed.
