I believe you ST - It's the exaggeration and inflation of these so called "crisis" that have me miffed.  I'm curios to how anyone can get a vehicle past the rocks separating the old parking lot from the new one too?  There's barely room to walk through there?  Lastly, there are no signs at the BH lot - the only sign I have seen that says "no overnight camping" is at Lerome; which is private property BTW, allowed by the good graces of the land owner.  Stanton Bay is also private property, only he/she apparently has a deal with the Outfitters only.  The other northern entry parking areas are Crown land.

I ALWAYS have people paddle over if they pass by, or hail me when I pass their campsites. Maybe it's the solo thing, They either think I know "something", or want too ask how I can be up there all alone.

I would paddle away in the opposite direction.  I've had a friendly "wave" at the campsite before and passing on portages but if I wanted company I would go the BWCA.   ;D
