We're thinking of taking a detour to check out the dead end east arm of Agnes (about mid to 3/4 of the way up) - anyone have any info on that area they'd like to share? Mainly wondering if it's worth the extra paddling, from what I recall that area seemed pretty burned/bare. I read that there are some pictos up there but that they're very hard to see.

Sorry, I don't have any information, but I have to think that if it is a dead end - then it's definitely worth exploring. Thanks for the idea, I'll want to do it on our next Agnes trip.

There is a nice, very private (not often used) campsite deep in the arm with a sweet sand beach.

Thanks!

I've often stared at that area on the map and thought to myself "I'll bet nobody ever goes there". It's on my list also. It reminds me of the east channel on Alice (BW) where my brother and I sat and yanked up walleyes and smallmouth for a couple of days...never seeing another canoe.

We were thinking the same thing, and I'm intrigued by the areas most people just paddle by because they're out of the way.

Ran into a older couple that every year camped at the entrance to the east arm. They loved that area. I don't think to many people go to the end. I do know a few people who have caught fish down there.

Thanks for the input Pinetree! Assuming the weather gods treat us right, we're definitely going to check it out. Hoping to camp at one of the nearby islands for 3 days so we can explore more of Agnes.
