Spot Details

Nice wide beach for launching.  I was here camping recently in this provincial park, without a kite. It seems that the wind funnels down the canyons through the ridge on the west side of the lake producing intense winds.

Accessible by canoe or small fishing boat from the Montreal River (as long as you can lift the motor) and perhaps wade through a couple of shallow spots.
