This was my favorite site of our loop (Gaskin - Winchell - Otto - Horseshoe). Super hard to get to - the portage is terrible on the Otto side, very muddy - but quiet and we had the lake to ourselves. The site itself is set up on a cliff overlooking the lake and from the outcroppings we saw a moose cow and calf munching on the opposite shore. We also saw a young black bear cross the portage.

Beautiful white pines but inconvenient site. Muddy lake bottom makes for poor swimming. Roughly 200 paces to latrine.
