BWCA Campsite 1453 on Bonnie

This is the type of campsite I love, so I may be a little biased. It sits on a peninsula with a whole grove of red pines, along with a few white pines and some small spruce. The landing was fairly easy. I was able to pull my canoe in parallel to shore and then pull it up onto a small grassy area. From there, it is a short climb up to the top of the peninsula. The biggest downside is that the peninsula is rocky, with lots of small rocks throughout the site, and that affects the tent pads. The kitchen is on the north side of the peninsula, set a bit off to the side rather than in the middle, and it has a pretty good view. Really, the whole campsite has a good view of the lake. It could get windy here, especially with a west wind, because there is not much of a wind break. There is one good tent pad close to the kitchen, far enough away that I would not worry much about embers, and one okay tent pad a little farther back in a small clearing. You could fit a third small tent in a grassy area on the peninsula, though staking may be difficult. There are not many flat areas on the rounded rocky peninsula, but the red pine grove and lake views made me really like this site.

Decent camp site. Had to pull in here as all the sits on Knife were taken as the evening progressed.
