[CINC] Monday and Tuesday whales seen from IPCo

[Catherine French]

Monday, March 21 1/2day trip to SCI:

4 gray whales
2 humpbacks
300 common dolphins including 74 calves
10 Dall's porpoise

Marty Flam on VC, Capt. Anthony on helm, me on a hike up Smugglers' Road. Cavern Point and Potato Harbor trails closed. 

Tuesday, March 22:
Vanguard WW, 2 trips

Morning--10 grays
100 common dolphins
Afternoon--7 grays

According to Capt. Jason there were 41, but I made reports on what I could ID. In the a.m., was busy with 60 third graders and other passengers, so doing a report was difficult. The whales are out there, rig line between Gail and Gilda, good spot.

Calm seas,
