Yup! That's a beach. Was pretty nice for swimming. Site was decent and not too buggy. There is an old winter trail behind camp going to Sunday bay-perhaps from the zups days.

+1-- played catch with a football there in the sand/water many moons ago on warm May afternoon. The trail to Sunday Bat of Crooked at that time was doable for a portage-- not the best -- but doable.

Richwon4,
Last fall we stayed on three island on Iron and kept wondering if we were seeing a beach to the ESE. We never paddled over but it looks promising from satellite images. I'm sure you'll here from others.

I've never seen one. I know there's one on Nina Moose.

I've been to Iron many times. I've never seen a beach there. In looking at the sat image, I doubt it's a beach.

I agree with Old Salt. If you want beaches - go to Insula or Alice in the east side.

I didn't say that one couldn't look for a beach on Iron. Anyone can look. If finding a beach is a priority, I would choose a different lake. There are many lakes that have some great beaches. Anything that might be on Iron would be minuscule at best.

I'm but a young pup and have only visited Iron one time but Id bet money or a beer that there's a beach there I wish I would have explored it.....scroll down to the member named Willis.

Some of these guys have been around and have enough experience on Iron I'm sure they have the lake figured out. Then there is Google earth indications but that Ius unreliable compared to experience and as sand and rock can look so alike from outer space.

Well the title pretty well speaks for itself. It has been about 12 years since I have been to Iron. Are there any Beaches there? Thank you

There is a beach with a site right there. Its ok. I think the bugs would be really bad.
