Crotch Lake Campsite #1
Landing Topography of under-water approach: Gentle sand slope. Impediments to disembarking from and/or unloading a canoe: None. Topography to tent sites: Moderate dirt and root rise.
Campsite Campsite maintenance: Regular. Size of open area: A rounded area provides three or four opportunities to pitch tents under the tall pines, relatively close to each other and to the firepit, in an area of approximately 15 x 60 feet. Extent of tree cover: Tree canopy is provided by mature pines, with their lower halves being somewhat open to the lake below. Degree of levelness: The campsite is located on a somewhat rounded height, with a narrow level section running north-south down its middle. Number of level tent sites: The southmost part has room for 2 level tentsites. Since the rest of the campsite is rounded, additional tents are forced close to the central firepit area. North exposure: Line of trees provides broken view of the lake. East exposure: Trees. South exposure: Trees. West exposure: Trees break the view of the lake. General description: Private campsite on a raised point with a tree-filtered sunset view. Overall accessibility: Pronounced grade requires fair bit of up-and-down walking to-and-from the water.
