Sylvania Wilderness Backcountry Camping

Probably better for paddling than backpacking

Visited in May 2022.

Loon was a lovely campsite - separated from the others, nice view of the lake, and a short, straightforward walk from the trailhead. 

Fox 2 was a different story - despite the site description saying that it had easy access to trails, we were not able to find a trail leading to the site on the way in, or on the way out of camp. We ended up walking up towards where the trail goes between Crooked and Mountain Lakes and bushwhacked along the shore until we saw the posts for the sites on the water. Even exploring around camp and searching for a trail on the way out, we were unable to find a path to the campsite. 

The park itself was nice and quiet, though that could have been partially due to rain. I probably would not backpack this park again, but would consider a canoe or kayak trip.
