The seals aren’t an issue in my experience. They like watching and usually will be the first to get out of the way. When pups are concerned it’s a bit different. I think the rules are to stay at least 100 yards from pups…might have been a few nearby when you came upon them? I hope you do get out soon, it’s so rewarding when the good days strike

Yes, we stayed clear of them, only close enough to get a peek. I believe there was a sign nearby stating keep 100 yards distance. Circled back shortly ahead, and when we passed by a handful started coming after us. They didn't seem particularly aggressive, but it was unnerving to see the heads pop out closer and closer
