I swear I have been here before... I can't quite place it though in my mind. Caribou lake off of clearwater?

As soon as I saw the guess for Canoe, I looked again, and was almost positive it was the site I stayed at in 2020 (western-most site, canoe landing). Nice spot.

I believe this was the center site on Canoe, which is the nicest/most popular of the 3.

I wish it had made it to two clues so I could have commented on how bad the fishing is in this lake! Alder and Crystal are only a single portage away, if it's fish you are after. I've spent 5 nights on Canoe and fished every day without ever pulling one out worth eating.

Funny how confirmation bias works out sometimes. It definitely looks similar to the landing on the westernmost site! I concur about the fishing, but we only fished it for a few hours and it was in the fall, so we didn't expect much. I thought we'd at least have a bite where a creek runs in on the southern side, but we fished it for 15 minutes with a couple different baits and had nothing at all. It's a bummer because it's a great lake for base camping.
