TreeBear: "Let's try Maria? " We have a winner! I knew that clue about Tom's canoe color was too revealing. |

If you want to exit Quetico Park from this lake, one portage plus a paddle will get you to an entry point. Interestingly, two other EPs are closer than that exit, but they require a second portage, and for one of those, also a little more paddling outside the park proper. |

Cerberus & I were camped on the mainland, but there are three islands on this lake with campsites. |

Three Portages in/out Three Islands with Campsites Lake to EP with one portage + paddle Lake to second EP one portage + paddle + portage Lake to third EP one portage + paddle + portage + paddle outside park Tom is camped on one of the three islands enjoying scotch New clues/intel: 1) Photos are from last July, so not in a burn area 2) Smaller lake 3) This lake has one of the highest campsite-to-surface area ratios in the park. Many lakes this small have 0-2 campsites, while this has more than a handful. 4) Tom's canoe is Red |

tumblehome: "I should know this shouldn’t I SNS. Tom is DQ'd from guessing. At the moment this photo was taken, he is camped on the island in the distance that the hammock points to, enjoying a scotch. On the other hand, if you had enough scotch, perhaps this is all new to you. :-) |

Two shots of this lake to start, the first looking a hair west of due north: The second shot has us looking ESE. Both are taken from the water, not from land. |
