BWCA Campsite 1264 on Ensign

There are several good tent pads at this site. However, some of them are back in the woods and the mosquitoes were horrendous there. Especially in the low-lying area. But the other pads that are more out in the open and nearer the fire grate area were great. There is a really nice spot for a tarp and a couple of hammocks down by the lake. The fire grate area is out in the open overlooking the lake. The canoe landing can get VERY slippery. So be careful. There is a nice trail back through the woods to a large rock point that overlooks the bay. There was a pair of swans that hung out back there. It was a pleasure to see and listen to them.

Nice campsite with open space around the fire and several spaces to set up tents or hammocks. The landing is rocky and slippery when wet, but has space for multiple canoes to land. Fire pit area looks out over the lake and has several good seating options.

This was an excellent site off of the main paths. There was a lot of service berries, you could eat your fill of them in one location and then come back the next day and they'd be replenished. We had a great spot near the canoe beach for hammocks and tarps. Lots of wood for campfires. It's on an island, so bears were non existent.
