Mountain Lake · group site

Site ERMINE-1

“Due to current Recreation.gov system limitations, this site is listed as a group site, however the maximum group size is 6 and it does not resemble a group site but rather a very small site. This site is located close to the lake. This site is good for afternoon and morning sun and is big enough for 2-3 tents. The landing is sandy, has a low bank, but is not the best for swimming. Ermine 1 and Ermine 2 have separate landings.”
