Backcountry Site

LOC-4 is Heaven.

It's the type of site I feel like I don't even want to tell people about because I want to keep it to myself.

I discovered this site about 10 years ago and rediscovered it again this year.

It's the last site on the trail so you are completely secluded. There is a fire ring and a bear pole about 100 yards behind the site. The site is basically on a small stretch of land that goes out into the lake so you are surrounded by water on three sides of you with a great view of the bluffs and rocks in front of you. There is also two trees that are perfect for setting up a hammock. The water is calm and it is all sand going out into the lake and stays very shallow so you can walk very far out.

It's a lot of work to get there but it is totally worth it. Pack light.
