![]() Landing Topography of under-water approach: On the south side of point, a large rock slopes down into water .. with a small area floored with sand and gravel. Impediments to disembarking from and/or unloading a canoe: With one's feet in the water, the sloped rock serves for unloading .. afterwhich one's canoe can be lifted up on to the rock. Topography to tent sites: 20' rise up a large rock slope to the actual firepit and tentsite area.
Campsite Campsite maintenance: regular Size of open area: 50' x 70'. Extent of tree cover: Three pines provide partial cover of the firepit area, while there's no cover over the open grassy tentsite area beside it. There's a second tentsite area which is under tree cover to the rear. Degree of levelness: The firepit and first tentsite area is generally level. Number of level tent sites: Two tents could be squeezed on the open grassed area (but without trees for tarp support). A third tentsite is located back in the trees. North exposure: Protected from the worst of the north winds by intervening trees. East exposure: Inland forest blocks the east winds. South exposure: Limited protection to the south. West exposure: Fully open to the west wind and sunset.
General description: OK for small group. However, without tie-down trees at front tentsites, protection is limited. Overall accessibility: In-water landing and steep sloped rock could be an issue. ![]() Thanks to Jeffrey McMurtrie of Maps By Jeff for supplying the base map.
