ManAndDog	06/27/2019 02:08PM TominMpls: "My daughter and I stayed at Fenske Lake Campground the night before entering at EP16 a couple years back. It worked really well. I don't know how far it is from the entry but it's certainly less than a half hour. It does have potable water and good latrines." We always stay at Fenske when we use EP 14, 16 and 19 and we always like it. About 20-30 min to EP16

CampSnkRpr	06/26/2019 11:59AM Call Chuck at Big Lake Wilderness Lodge he might have a bunkhouse, or a place for you to set up your tents. It is right by EP19, which isn't far from EP16, we have stayed there and entered on 16 several times.

billconner	06/25/2019 06:14PM I wasn't quite sure where Meander was so searched for it on G-Maps. There is street view! Looks great. Would hate to rely too much on it being vacant though.

naturboy12	06/25/2019 12:01PM You also try Meander Lake Campground, which is only a couple miles away from EP 16. Its small, just 2 backcountry sites and does not have access to potable water, so we have always opted for Lake Jeanette, but it is an option. Meander Lake
cowdoc	06/25/2019 11:34AM Jeanette Lake 11-12 miles?
Richwon4	06/25/2019 10:56AM We may be camping near Entry 16 the night before we go in. Approximately what is nearby and how far away is it? Thank you
