On November 10th, as the party paddled past Grays Point, they saw that the steep, forested shoreline consisted of a series of coves, or 'nitches', each divided from the next by a small point of land. They passed present-day Dismal Nitch (also known as Megler Cove), but as the weather again worsened, the party retreated to a sheltered cove upriver from the Dismal Nitch, approximately 600 feet north / northeast of the eastern end of the present-day 'Dismal Nitch Safety Rest Area'.
