Mccargoe doesn't L or T, it's a straight one.

It would be great to be just a bit higher (to see beyond the dock), but this is looking like Chippewa to me... Although I swear I know that list/angle from somewhere. That would also mean the way the person is diving, the shore is RIGHT there...

Three Mile. BTW, is that a mast step on the kayak?

We have a winner! Yep, it's Three Mile. And yes, that is a mast holder. I'm in my Klepper Aerius II. I sail this boat on occasion, but not on this particular trip.

As an aside, see that gal and her son on the dock? They were camping on IR with their boyfriend. They got into a huge fight and the guy left with all their supplies. They literally had nothing but the clothes on their back. We gave then some of our food and they continued on to Rock Harbor. I often wondered what happened to them.

My guess: Siskiwit Bay
Based on the sun position, dock type and background of the Greenstone Ridge.
Ding ding! Almost *too* accurate of a guess...

That IS the best tent pad at that camp, IMHO. (I'll give others the chance to guess this one.)

Second on Hugginin Cove.
"And standing on the the crest of the Greenstone Ridge, I suddenly had this desire to retreat north to where I just come, to stay in the backcountry, to spend another day in a place where the only deadline I had was to pitch the tent before dark."
