This is an out and back camping location, but worth it! Just get here early to secure one of the 5 sites. Super remote, quiet, and majestic. Its a good place to spend your first night to get you out of sync from most people getting off the boat. Otherwise you are all just rushing to the same places most of the time.

This is probably one of the better campgrounds on the island. If you're here, try and get site 2. If there is too much cold wind, campsite one is well protected and is quite good. The other three camps are suitable but definitely not up to the caliber as sites one and two. You can get a pretty good sunset, just sit on the log at site 2 near the water

Remote, peaceful, and echoes of wolf calls. Very rugged hike in and out, off Greenstone Ridge, but worth it. Downside - limited number of campsites, and no adjacent day hiking trails.

The hike in and out of Lane Cove from Mt. Franklin is challenging but filled with beauty. It's steep for a section and seems longer than advertised. The water crossings were flooded when we visited (after a lot of rain) but they held and we were able to navigate the boardwalks with minimal wet feet. The cove is magic at sunset. We found several shed moose antlers.
