There's more to this story but telling it might give away the location. This is the last portage at the end of a long day in May of 2014. Where are we?

High Falls. York River south of High Falls Pond??

Misty?

Although not against another interpretive trail my hope would be the trail head and parking are off an access road somewhere  along 60 and not directly adjacent to 60. May help alleviate traffic and parking issues for the already busy highway.  Especially if brand new , it will be a popular spot for sure. IMO. 

Great report! That looks like the Gaga Site on Bonnechere? Beautiful site for sure. 

Sittingman Lake? 

I never really thought of site specific reservation being dangerous but you make good points.  I would just hold up regardless of where I was if I thought it was too dangerous to proceed.  I too have little experience in areas outside of Algonquin so definitely more comfortable within the current system . I don't mind not knowing 100% what site we'll get and it is rewarding to find the site you're shooting for available when you get there LOL! There is little left to the imagination nowadays with trip and campsite reports available  as they are. Despite finding this handy at times it does take away from the adventure a little. Conversely  it's equally rewarding when you come across a diamond in the rough type of site you weren't expecting. 

I saw this on a FB page for French River. Wondering if this will transfer to Algonquin  as well. What are your  thoughts?? Not much different  than current  system IMO. Pros or Cons?
