What a difference 10 years makes! Water levels on the lake are now markedly lower, such that there's an exposed stone "beach" for landing. The downed trees on the sloped former landing in the 2016 picture are now structural logs that make it more easily scalable / stadium seating. All in all a solid site, though you'd have to walk out a ways for swimming now and the lake views are indeed impeded from the site proper.

Will do in a pinch. We stayed here to make our last day before exit easier. two decent tent pads, firepit was small. ok area for a tarp. water access is tough with the bay to the south. no great access to the water on the north side of the site.

A good site with a bad landing. A tree down limits space at landing, and the shoreline is steep. But once on top, it is a decent site. Not real good access to the water for fishing or swimming, or getting water. I did have a cow moose and twin calves swing by while i was having breakfast, so that made it a bit more special! They came out of the marshy bay SE of the site. Could be buggy!

Well used and beat up from blow-downs and overuse. A steep climb on an eroded dirt hillside to a very usable site, we stayed at. Plenty of firewood around, and not a bad campsite for our last night of the trip.

Stopped here for lunch and definitely went swimming - so it's possible! Again - not a terrible site with good shelter.

Landing is steep; Fire pit is on a sloping rock so it is a bit hard to sit and watch the fire; one tent pad was under two widow makers in 2014, but if those fall then it will be a nice tent pad. There is no real access for swimming from this site.
