Good guess, but no.

Papoose? Not sure if it meets the no portages criteria..

Benezie


That has two hiking campsites so maybe not a good guess.

If you follow the river out of this lake you’ll reach an entry point portage.

I follow an old winter logging trail to get to this lake.

Hmm... decent sized lake, older forested shore line, some level of winter access....


So many options. I'm going with Dawkins.

This is my last photo so I’ll add more clues.
Looking mostly west.

That is funny because I had Baldpate photo tee'd up as an option whenever I got to post again. Problem was, I only had a picture from right at the mouth of the creek so I didn't recognize it from further out (ice wasn't safe yet when we were there.) Nice one, I like the obscure ones!

I was going to throw in the towel with Lake Befudled or Lac La Clueless....but I'll give it another try with Baldpate Lake."
That’s it!

There's no way I get that without all of the helpful clues. I mean, I'd never heard of the lake before and certainly wouldn't recognize it from a photo. But that's what I find so enjoyable about this game...you learn so much scouring maps and disecting pics and clues.


Unfortunately, I don't have much in the way of obscure ones, TreeBear. But I intend to change that with future trips. :)

There used to be a nice ski/snowshoeing trail adjacent to this lake.

This lake has no portages in or out and no campsites.

Warpaint lake? I know sometimes people head up there. Tough one!

Baldpate was the one that made sense to me. I see a guess for that above? If it's Baldpate, I'm mad I didn't get that sooner since I visited in December.

If it's not Baldpate, I don't really know what it would be. Bezhik seems a stretch?
