Pine Lake has ten campsites along its 12 miles of shoreline. The best are in the northwest part of the lake; the most private are in the southeast end. The northern and western edges of the lake received some damage from the blow down. A couple of small sand beaches along the east shoreline may be enticing to swimmers.

Day 5 (8 miles): Pine Lake, p. 260 rods, Trout Lake, p. 40 rods, Vermilion Lake. (See comments for ssss1.)

LOCATION Crab Lake is accessible from Burntside Lake, a very popular and populated lake about 4 miles northwest of Ely. Several public boat landings are situated around Burntside Lake. The most convenient to Ely, and with the best access is located along the south shore near the center of the lake. From its junction with Highway 1-169, 4.75 miles west of the International Wolf Center in Ely, drive north on CR 88 for 2.3 miles to CR 404 (the Van Vac Road). Turn left and drive 1.2 miles west on this good, scenic, paved road to a DNR public access. The boat landing is 0.2 mile north (right) of the Van Vac Road. A parking lot adjacent to the boat landing is large enough to accommodate as many as 15 vehicles.
