collinal	05/23/2010 09:37AM If you are coming from the south portion of Loon Lake, all you have to worry about is the boats coming from loon falls portage (west end of loon lake) and going through the northwest portion of loon lake up to beatty portage. We got shuttled in 2 years ago all the way to Beatty portage and then went up and stayed in snow bay for 4 days. If you stay in Snow Bay, there is a wonderful 4-5 star campsite that apparently not many people on this forum talk or know about. It is the island site on the north central part of snow bay. very developed by someone, we stayed there. lots of "secret things" built around the island. go exploring if you stay there. -collin

The Lorax	05/17/2010 02:49PM I've never had a problem on LLC but have always been there after Labor Day. The Loon river can be dangerous. As posted above, they fly up and down that river.

TGalka	05/16/2010 10:22AM I am planning a trip starting at Little Indian Sioux north and heading north to Lac La Croix. I would like to go up thru Beatty portage, past Sandbar Island to Snow Bay. I am wondering if this is a foolish proposition, due to the heavy motor traffic. My question is how bad is it ? Does the scenery, fishing make it worth the hassle ? We were thinking of sneaking into Norway Lake - anyone have any experience going to this lake ? We would return via the North, South, Slim, Loon lakes, etc. So many Question, so little time. Thanks
