Re: Guess What Campground?
I will put one on/up for treeplanter, since he is without other photos.
A view from a great camp.

Midwest Ed, Lake Whittesley it is!
I've walked up the portage from Chippewa harbor to Lake Whiitesley many years back, but have never actually paddled on the lake. Someday.

Re: Guess What Campground?
The photo I last posted was not Whittlesey!
But, close. Another from there.

Re: Guess What Campground?
Since we had two pictures up a once, we have two winners. Either Midwest Ed or Ingo can go next.
Somebody suggested branching out to other locations besides campgrounds. That's a good idea.

Birch Island?
Damn, that's a beautiful photo. No matter where it is, I want to go there.

No, not Birch, or either Duncan. It's a sunrise.
