Stopped for lunch. Perhaps not the most picturesque site, but it's directly across Moose Lake from the entry point, so could be a good option if you had a late start or wanted an early exit the next morning. There is a nice sand landing, leading up to a small clearing, surrounded by smaller trees and dense underbrush. The kitchen is serviceable, with the fire grate next to a large boulder for some wind protection. There are some nice views of Moose, but you'll need to get nearer the water to enjoy them.

Better than the site to the northeast. Gravel landing is also nice for swimming. There is an open area near the landing that acts like a "front porch." Up the hill is the site proper. There is a mix of shade and open areas. Two tent pads, though one is maybe a little hilly. There is another shaded area that looks like it could be a tent pad, but it is full of poison ivy.
