Well the whole site is jack pine, but it's elevated nicely. This will be a nice site again someday.

The landing didn't impress me but, I was here during flood stage so, it may be more accommodating in lower/normal water levels. However, I think canoe storage (especially for groups) may be cumbersome regardless. It's a bit of a scramble up to this elevated site. The firegrate area is quite nice but, there isn't much of a view. There are a couple of really nice tent pads and some mature trees in and near camp (currently a rarity for this area.) FYI as some maps aren't entirely clear: site is located on northern bank of river.
