Lake Map No. At its far northern end, Smoke drains into Smoke Creek, which flows north through low bog land into Sawbill . The canoe route through Smoke parallels the southern shore, from the 100 rod portage to Sawbill at the southwest corner, to the 90 rod portage to Burnt which departs from the southeast. These sites can fill up early during the busier travel times. The mile of narrow, twisting stream that flows north out of Smoke to Sawbill seems to provide an opportunity to experience the lake as something more than a waystation on the way to somewhere else.
Smoke Creek appears to offer an escape to boreal solitude in an otherwise well traveled region.
We'd love to hear about it.
