Hi- There is a small water source approx halfway between shushartie bay
and skinner creek. If you are hiking in from shushartie bay you'll come across a pile of lumber situated in a small boggy area, when you are right beside this pile of lumber, backtrack up the boardwalk about 15-20
meters, and on your left(if you are coming from shushartie) there is a small water hole, and the water is acually pretty good, make sure to purify it, I used it a few days ago and is fine. So if you are coming from skinner creek and see this pile of lumber on your right, 15-20 meters up the boardwalk and look down to your right, and you should see a small water hole, hopefully this helps.

we never found the water at Shushartie but lucky for us the coast guard were sitting right there in the bay and they filled all our water bottles and gave us a big tray of brownies too. I have now heard of other hikers having wqter probems in this area too.
