This is an official U.S. Forest Service Campsite. However, it is not maintained. It doesn't have a fire grate and it probably doesn't have a latrine (not located). The campsite is on Snowbank Lake right next to the start of the Flash Lake portage. The canoe landing for the campsite is the same used for the portage landing. The campsite is also accessible to hikers of the Snowbank Lake Trail. To reach the campsite from the trail, just follow the portage from where it intersects the trail to Snowbank Lake.


Snowbank Lake Campsite 1
The canoe landing at this campsite is very good and is also the Flash Lake portage landing. This is not a heavily used portage so you shouldn't see too much traffic.


Snowbank Lake Campsite 3
Fire pit. There isn't a grate.


Snowbank Lake Campsite 4
This is the only easily recognizable tent pad. This campsite is aimed more at hikers, so tent pads are smaller.
