A couple photos of a campsite on Lake 100. First photo is facing east-southeast, and the second shows one place to put a tent. There are three portages leading to/from Lake 100. One of these portages has a branch that leads to this campsite, a nice trail about 100-150 yards long from the portage.....if you're heading north after your stay, you can simply use the trail as opposed to loading up and paddling to the rocky take-out....
BTW, you can catch the grand slam in a morning by fishing the northeastern part of the lake, and never have to get more that a 300 yards or so from your campsite....

Thanks! This thread reminds me that the next trip through here, I have to stop and fish it for awhile before moving on. Walter is a nice lake with a enough expanse and shoreline for a good fishing basecamp.
