The Narrows Site on Ogish. As others stated, you will see people paddle by as this is a pinch point for Ogish. Not much luck fishing the narrows, but a beaver and a large snapping turtle was checking us out. Site has many options. Despite the traffic, most people paddle on by with jealous looks on their face. Great shallow landing. Site goes on forever out the backside to several rock views. As Ogish was slammed, we felt extremely lucky grabbing this gem.

High traffic, nice open site. High traffic. Did I mention there's people paddling by all day? If that bothers you, don't bother with the site. Decent hammock trees close to water.

Nice site - while you do get all the traffic going down the lake - it's nice to see all the groups going by. Couple of really nice tent pad - and the firepit is great. We were entertained by the chipmunks - but it was a little buggy. Great spot for base camp

This seemed like a nice site, but there is no privacy what so ever. Every group moving down Ogish has to get within 50 ft of the site.

Not a bad site but in a very narrow part of the lake. All north-south traffic floats by very close to this site. Good landing and kitchen. Better sites elsewhere on Ogish.

Nice open site sitting right at the narrows. Good landing for canoes, and pretty nice variety of views/swimming, but got very buggy at mosquito hour.
