At first glance from the water, most would pass on this site. Fire grate area is on a bushy slope with no tent pads in sight. However on further exploration, there are some nice large flat tent pads up the trail in the woods. If you keep going up the trail to the top of the cliff, there is another place for a small tent and hammock hang overlooking the lake. As others mentioned, it's a good spot for some cliff jumping too.

This campsite sits on a steep, brushy slope. I'm not sure there's a flat spot for a tent here. We passed it by for the better one down the shore.

OK site but is located on a hill and the kitchen area is on a slope out in the open. Canoe landing is not great. Tent pads aren't bad, located up above. The real draw to this site is the cliff jumping off the back, with jumps up to about 30' available. We stopped for the cliff jumping as the site was empty but didn't stay here.

Was going east on Kek to try to find a site after seeing site 1422 was taken. We couldn't even find 1423, and were right along the cliffs. Went right up to 1424 and so glad we did, as it was a fantastic site.
