This site doesn't show up on every map, but it is the first mid-portage site. It is also my favorite of the mid-portage sites as it sits with a gorgeous view of the first falls out of Basswood. There are a couple tent pads cut out of the brush. The BIFF is on the opposite side of the portage from the campsite. The camp kitchen is really nice though and there are views up and down the river. We had amazing stars here while enjoying a campfire on a tough first night of the trip.
