Ahoy all,

We're heading out thru Big Porc from the south and I'm wondering what the state of those two northern most sites is?

Are they worth paddling to check out, or just take the 1st nice one we see along the way from the double Devil's Staircase?

They're more sheltered and enclosed, they're not as scenic as most of the other sites on the lake. The views aren't particularly pretty either, and everyone paddling the lake will come pretty close to the campsite as they pass by.

If you have decent weather I would take one of the more exposed and aesthetic campsites. And if you don't have great weather I'd still personally take one of the more sheltered options in the southern half of the lake; the two northernmost sites aren't worth the risk of paddling all the way there just to find out that they're taken, then needing to turn around. They get taken usually by people coming from the north that want to snag a campsite quickly without paddling the length of the lake.

Great, thanks for the insight.  We'll probably take what we can as it comes then.

Appreciate it!
