I'm going in at Crab lake for 10 days. Any place I should not miss? Fishing is not a priority.

Does anyone have suggestions for campsites, swimming spots, nice views or artifacts in the area?

I can't tell you much - we had half as long as you and that cut in half by weather - and that was 12 years ago. We went up to Cummings, stayed at first site NE, vague memory is that it was OK, about average. Stayed at site on Korb, very elevated, great view, not great tent pad. Recommend paddle NE to Coxey Pond. Stayed Crab Lake, SW site next to portage. Remember large site, nice.

If I went back, I'd like to do the SW loop from Crab (there are a couple of trip reports somewhere). I'd be tempted with 10 days to go to Cummings via Western, Buck. From Cummings, probably day trip W on the river, N to Neewin. Cummings a pretty nice lake.

Any place I should not miss? The first portage . . . ? Sorry I can't be more help.

Enjoy your trip.

If you haven't seen it already? There's some information in my trip report from a few years back.
