Any information on PCD 1F1? Thinking about 1st night's camp on the way to Kawnipi from PP. I have read that there is a trout reef to the west and that channel to the east looks like a nice pinch point.
There is another island with 2 sites just about a mile north (PCD 1FV, 1FY).

I have camped on 1F1. It is a rocky north point of the penninsula. Small site with a small fire pit. Room for 2 tents. Nothing special, except if you climb up the hill to the south, you have a great north view up the middle of Agnes. I am right now looking at a 1993 film panoramic photo of my 13 year old son and me from the top with Agnes behind us. He is now 34 and going with me again in July for his 7th trip and my 23rd, this time to Chatterton/Splitrock Falls.

I have to confess why I even remember this campsite. A few years ago I was with the younger guys when we were highballing from Minneapolis to Prairie Portage to Rose Island all in one long day.
The day was cold, windy and rainy. I am getting old. You put cold, rain, being on the water and being older and you get multiple bathroom breaks.
Agnes seemed to be completely deserted. I decided I needed to stop and thought to myself that this nondescript point would be a good place to stop before we headed across the large expanse of water that followed. So we stop in the rain, cold and wind and I proceed to jump out on the shore and do my business.
There I am standing for all the world to see. I am going about my business when two heads looking in my directions pop up over some shrubs right in front of me.
Not one of my better moves.
Probably not one of their better days.

quote linkster: "I am sure it was like a beacon in the moonlight. Fortunately, those types of things do not leave permanent scars and become blurred with time."
Not like a beacon in the moonlight. Think very cold and wet in the rain and then remember George in a well known Seinfeld episode..............
