Lerome Lake (Sue Falls) entry is definitely more work.  You are in and out of the canoe a lot and finally you get to Cirrus and Sue Falls.  The best campsite in the area had a blow down about 4 years ago and that is too bad.  Consider what others have said.  Pickerel is a wonderful but large lake.  We have stayed there many times and it is a good thing to stay at Dawson Trail Campground the night before.  Also, you can check in the night before.  And check out the Ranger Station.  Then leave very early to go west across Pickerel.  We went in with 3 canoes and 2 kayaks many years ago with 2 families when they were teens.  Stayed in the mid lake area where all the islands are.  Had a great beach campsite for all to hang out on.  It is only a ways away from the Dam and portage south into the B lakes.  We fished along the river there one day and had good fishing.  B lake chain is fun also.  Good luck.  Kim
