We entered the trail from the South Entrance. There’s a lot of trails that criss cross around the trail head entrances (there’s a few places to get on it). There was one steep grade on a sandy hill. We had to cross water (14 inches) which resulted in a pair of wet socks for me (I came prepared)

Unfortunately there was a fire ban when we went about a month ago. I wanted to find huckleberries but they were scorched by the weather.

The camp cites are free but you have to walk or boat in. There were a lot of tents and hammocks when we got there but they (Boy Scouts) arrived to camp after dark and left by boat in the morning.

The only photo I captured was a group photo after arriving back to the trail head location.

The campsites are lake front and the surrounding area has a lot of rotting trees and ferns.

This is a great easygoing backpacking trip suitable for beginners. The trail a through trail! Next time I plan to come in at the north end and hike through to the south end after dropping off a car.
