This is an abandoned campsite. There is still a fire grate, but could not locate the latrine. The latrine may be buried in the brush somewhere though. There is only one very poor tent pad (may be others, but couldn't find them). You could also pitch a small tent next to the fire grate since there is a small clear area next to it. The landing is hard to see from the lake, but it's not terrible once you do locate it. The path from the canoe landing to the fire grate is densely overgrown. Campsite of last resort.
This abandoned campsite (as of 2024) is on the island just to the east of the Mud Lake portage. You can see that it is heavily overgrown. The campsite stopped being used because of tree damage caused by recent windstorms. This campsite also doesn't have a particularly good spot to land a canoe.
Canoe landing. Very brushy probably because it is seldom used. It's on the southwest side of the campsite.
The landing is small and overgrown, but it is relatively easy to use. Water is shallow and lake bottom is firm. Path from this landing over to the fire grate is hard to follow since it is so thick with vegetation.
This lonely fire grate doesn't get much use. The area between the fire grate and the water could be used as a tent pad.
There may be other tent pads, but couldn't locate them in all the brush. This is the only one and its pretty rough.
