Decent enough site with a big view. We just stopped in for a snack. There was just so much trash here which we packed out with us.

This was such a nice site that we decided to stay two nights. Landing is narrow, one canoe at a time. Nice shady area for tents. Grate is towards front of site on large rock surface sloping down to lake. Wide open views up and down the lake and across to the sites on the island opposite. Fishing was terrible despite the reeds along the shore. Almost every site on Ensign was taken, couldn't believe this one was still open.

This site has one hell of a view! You have a great rock outcropping to see the entire lake and we saw the northern lights on the northern horizon easily from here. The campsite is actually a smidge to the right of the dot pictured here as it is directly on the adjutting point. You have an island directly east and a good landing around on the south side of the point to access the site. Great campfire area. Good fishing around the island and up and down the shoreline
