Well, by PJ's logic, it's going to be a mess trying to figure out which lakes are in the park and out of the park down by PP.  Down there, the entry points are Basswood River, Sarah, Kashahpiwi, Agnes, and Carp.  Those are all quite a ways from PP.

So apparently next time I go to North Bay I won't need a park permit, just a crown land fee.  Also, Isabella, the S-Chain, and a host of other lakes should also require just a crown land fee and no reservations since you have to go thru them to get to an entry point lake.

Enjoy your Bailey's, Wally!
