Thanks. I can't go more that two days without a guess.

This has got to be Ahsub - the shoreline and hill match a view to the ESE that I'm thinking of, and plus you say 'subbing' in the title so obviously you're trying to get us to think of Ahsub. ;)

I agree, BonzSF...very similar but it is not a photo of South Arm Knife.

Here's another photo from camp, looking in a similar direction, but taken from the shore of a significantly smaller lake.

I'm just saying, you put this photo from site #1206 on Ahsub (originally from SnowBirb2016) side by side with yours, you can see why I was certain of this one. :)

Wow! There are a lot of similarities...thanks for sharing the look-alike photo. Even though I've never been to Ahsub, I did go back and check my google timeline photos just to make sure I got it right. :)

After reviewing some other photos of mine I realized the Wood Lake and South Arm Knife photos both have legitimate claims as well.

Can hardly wait to get back this spring!

Hint: There is the same number of campsites on this lake as there are portages into the lake. The campsites are all smallish and the portages are all short!

Example of smallish site...

Do you get another guess with each additional clue? I haven’t read all the rules yet

Hi BonzSF...Yes, each clue opens up the guessing for everyone and, besides, the rules are pretty much on the honor system anyway. Please do submit another guess!

Should be the last hint necessary: The water from this lake becomes this beautiful, and popular, waterfall.
