Since I have rather limited experience in the BWCAW, I am also presenting a selection from Quetico. This picture is taken from a campsite and the far shoreline is almost directly south.

Hint #1:

To the left side of the photo is a small burn area. The mass to the right side is the root ball of a recently toppled pine tree. This photo was taken in 2014.

Hint #2:

I have camped on this lake on three separate occasions, each time at a different campsite. None of these campsites are visible to the others. The photograph was taken from the southern-most of these three.

I'll hang with it for another day or two.

Hint #3.

"A River Runs Through It" is not only a movie title, it describes this lake.

If you looking almost due south in the photograph, you'd be looking at the approximate location of a portage leading to the next lake. That's all you would likely need to find the portage, which runs along side the river. The volume of water flowing is sufficient to be heard from several hundred yards away on a calm day.

Ahh, we’re on the same route. There was a fire that came through parts of that area a few years ago but now I’m thinking it happened in 2018.

Sidney?

Hint #4

When you complete the southern portage out of this lake you will have reached another lake with the same name.
