Sunrise at Three Mile? Or maybe Daisy or Moskey, but I'll go with Three Mile. Would have been later in the season I think.

A good pic, we're all stumped.
My wild-ass guess is Malone at sunset, up the trail at Siskiwit lake.

It's embarrassing none of you has recognized the famous Island Mine sunset. 
I too am stymied. My first guess would have been Feldtmann, looking at the beach. You're setting on what appears to be a fairly established ridge or platform, though; which then makes me think of more populated areas. The beach is too sandy for Lane Cove. I never found a shoreline that nice at Desor N. (Although I heard there is one? Maybe that's it. My guess is Desor N.)

As Jim DeFresne described this camp in his 4th edition guide book, IRNP foot trails and water routes:
"On a clear day, this is also one of the few places where you can view Canada from your campsite."
Use of my signature line also, may help.

Tom flirted with it, treeplanter gets the nod.
Lane Cove #4.
I had this sunset after returning from a day hike to Lookout Louise.
On my hike back, I was delayed by a mother moose with her calf right in the middle of the trail.
I also dropped my windshirt somewhere along the return from the lookout to the the junction of the greenstone and lane cove trails.
I was just about ready to hike back to find it, when some day hikers coming from hidden lake/lookout louise happened along with my windshirt.
I would have most likely missed the sunset, if it had not been for the great people that visit this Isle.
