Gibson L to the Nip? I haven't been there (yet), just deducing from your clues at this point...

Thanks for the detailed report Evan - it brought back some great  reflections, especially that incredible beach site on north Manitou. We did the loop in the opposite direction in 2017, except that we portaged straight from North Tea to Lorne. It was my first big canoe outing back in Algonquin after a 25+ year hiatus and it holds a special place in my memory. Injuries are humbling, and really suck… I’m currently working through a messed up foot. I keep telling myself to really appreciate these kinds of epic trips while we can!

Cheers,
(the other) Rich

Hi MCX30, from what I gather you park your vehicle right at the Pretty Lake site. The downside is that it's not connected to anything except neighbouring Francis Lake and the site is extremely close to the road. There's a thread on the myccr.com forum that may be of interest - hope this helps.

I'm just guessing now, but Hurdman?

 
You got it Bob. We were there several years back and it looked like the site hadn’t been used for quite some time which was surprising given its proximity to Cedar. A telltale sign was the semi-rotted thunder box covered in pine needles which still had the older plastic seat. We had to clamber over deadfall to get to it. Despite the rough edges (or maybe because of them) we found it to be a great spot.

You’re up!

It’s a lower maintenance site on the old Jeffsmap…

Not Cedar but very very close. Fortunately no debris in the water aside from vegetation

Not Big Thunder - further north yet and to the east. In terms of north-south alignment, Catfish if the closest guess.

Not Catfish or Radiant, but you're heading in the right direction - further up yet!
