No winners yet.

This lake can be accessed by two portages and has one campsite.

This lake is not WITHIN the BWCA, but a portion of it's shoreline is part of the BWCA boundary.

This sure feels like a trick to get me to spend more time looking at maps! Haha.

Let's go Moss?

Treebear, that was my guess!!

I love doing the map detective work.

The answer is Moss!

My next clue was going to be that both of these views are accessible via hiking trails, Moss Lake and Caribou Rock.

Awesome. I've never been on Moss by canoe, but I've hiked Caribou Rock in the summer and hiked the trail to Duncan via Moss a couple times in the winter. It's such a pretty area.
