The access point is crown land so no you do not. I checked out some of the sites a few weeks back when I was there and I didn't find anything overly nice! I'd suggest going down into Allan or North Depot or sticking with your Grand/Stratton plan?

Last fall , I spent a few unplanned days on Wendigo .
There is a nice site on the South -East side , with a sandy beach and spacious site .
As ya know .... Bo , when paddlin ta Allan and beyond , ya don't notice this site .
It's at the far end of the lake , on the opposite shore of the direct paddle most take when headin to the portage to Allan .




While waiting out a sore back , watched a bear swim across the lake .

Thanks John.  Da campsite looks purrrrrfect.  I will DEFINITELY camp there if it isn't taken.

Thanks John, it was a wonderful site that I stayed on the last night I was there as I went further down to Radiant Lake.  I did however see a moose on Wendigo and also your bear swimming back to my side of the lake where it came from.
