Small, grassy site close to the water. Landing is decent. The rock is a little too steep to be comfortable getting out of the canoe. It is a really steep trail to the latrine.

Tiniest site I have seen in a while. It definitely only works for one small tent. The whole site is situated in a space that can't be much larger than 15-20 yards deep from the water. I liked the way the fire grate was close to the water, but it wasn't going to work for our group with kids on this trip.

Average site in a really cool location. Big, old pines shading the site.

Overgrown. Mountain climb to the latrine -- wouldn't want to do it at night or in the rain. Tent sites very iffy. Awkward canoe landing.
