    Tips

    This beautiful, clear lake is the least visited spot in this part of the Boundary Waters due to the long portages to reach it, keeping many paddling groups away, making it an ideal spot to enjoy some solitude. There are five campsites, and you'll likely have no problem finding a perfect spot to pitch your tent if you choose to stay overnight. The hills on the north and south sides of the lake rise over 500 feet above the water, making them the highest in the BWCAW relative to the lake's surface, and are absolutely stunning.
