Camp Notes:
Wonderful private island campsite with great views in three directions. This means great sunsets and sunrises, but not accessible north view so difficult to check for northern lights. Mid-August and there were barely any bugs and nice dry weather. Good spots for 2 small tents and we made a third spot work. Great fire area with log benches that some kind visitor was kind enough to spend time on. Landing is tight and rocky with inclining rock bed to camp so be careful. Lots of trails around the island to explore.

Camp Notes:
Great site. Someone added a carved "kitchen counter" between the trees behind the fire grate. Landing on the rock face is tricky as others have commented, but there is a smaller but more manageable landing on the western shore of the island connected to camp via trail.

Not a great landing and has a short climb up to main part
of camp, but you're rewarded with nice views. Secluded
as there are only two other sites a good distance away
from this one. Short walk to latrine. Large slopping rock to
swim or fish from.

Tricky landing area. Walk up a hill to 2 tent pads . Latrine location is good. Nice fire grate area w/bench. Good views.

Fantastic island site. Great view from fire area. Log benches. Pine needle tent pads. Only mediocre part is the landing. Island big enough to explore/gather wood.
