Sometimes it seems that the mainland mountains have backed away, far away.

This is the view looking almost directly north from Oyster Bay. Quadra Island is about 11 km. from here; the mainland mountains some 100 km.

A veces parece que las montañas del continente se han alejado de repente. Aún nuestro vecino, la isla de Quadra, parece lejos. Queda como a 11 km. de este punto en la costa en Oyster Bay; las montañas del continente están más o menos a 100 km. Estamos viendo casi directamente hacia el norte.
