- Aerial view of our trip. Departure from the Buckville area boat launch (green dot). The route (dark blue) is approximate... We nicely proved that there are no straight lines on the water... First stop (after just a few minutes of hard paddling), at the yellow dot, island number 34. We travel as fast as we can to island number 36 (light blue dot). Arrival at our final and improvised destination (purple dot). Some believed it was actually an island... Not! This is mainland marker 6!
