Why don't you then go to Maple Mountain and climb it since you're going to be in Suckergut anyway, it's not that much further? |

Hobart Lake has a nice one but the one on Tupper Lake can serve as well and it's across from the trailhead to the top. Go for a refreshing swimm and a cool drink from the little lake halfway up. |

Did Mowat to Sucker Gut last year, be prepared for big water.
First site on LE narrows after the dunes is ok. No facilities. Room for 1 tent only. Go around the corner for a nice beach landing.
Preacher's Point(?) just before LE narrows to Sucker Gut is a nice site. Had hypothermia there.
Island on Sucker Gut near Frank's Falls is ok, not great facilities and no shelter. Plenty of room to play frisbee. |

thanks for the advice folks. we paddled temagami both ways a few years ago and lucked out with wind. going in it was mostly calm and hot as hell. |
