I spent a long time trying to find this one. Most maps show it much farther northeast than where I actually found it. The landing is workable but not great. There's a ledge where you can pull in and get the canoe alongside, but it's not especially easy. The fire grate is right out on an exposed rock point, essentially sitting right on the water. This entire point burned, and there are no mature trees left. I couldn't find any good tent pads. There may be one possible spot, but it's very shallow soil over rock, so tent stakes would be useless. Overall, you're very exposed here, sitting out on bare rock for the most part.
