General description: Campsites CS #8, CS#9, and CS#10 are connected by a well worn path. Very flat and level site that is wider than it is deep, with a fairly unobstructed view of the lake. A nice firepit that is open to wind from the west, but otherwise a well protected site. Site can accommodate 4 tents easily. This is also an ideal campsite for those that use a hammock because of the numerous trees.

Overall accessibility: Other than a steep rise from the water to the site proper, no accessibility issues.

Path from CS#9.

Good view of sunset.
