The next time I go camping...


...this is where I want to pitch the tent.

It's perect--well isolated from the other two rustic sites on the never-to-be-named lake. There is throne a short walk away, a stout picnic table, and a good sized clearning surrounded by magnificent evergreens. From the looks of things--I admit it: I inspected the latrine--the place gets scant use.

J and I discovered the hidden gem while paddling up the shoreline from the spot where we stayed July 22 to July 25.

Given the terrain and distance from the road, it is not really suitable for the usual car camping. A better approach: park the car at the lake's main campground and load the canoe with the cargo. Unless there is a big wind, it would be a piece of cake to ferry people and supplies to the site--a lot easier than scrambling down the steep, rocky hill from the road.

Lake County--it's the place to get away from all the people trying to get away from it all.

So don't go there. If you do, keep your trap shut.
