This was the first camp site of our trip. Overall not a terrible site, but I guess we were just not adjusted to the bugs yet...they were bad long before the sun ever set. Near the water, on the rock, in the edge of the woods...bugs were everywhere! I suspect this could be a very nice site given less bugs, which I know change all the time. Also if we hit it later in our trip, our perspective might have been different.

Small rock/gravel landing on the south side of the point. The site is mostly a wide open space on a granite dome. It makes for a good view. There is a little shade, but not much. None of the tent pads are great, but they will do.
