Originally posted by TrailBlaser View PostBased on my experience there (mid-week) this summer, don't expect peace and quiet when camping on Pharaoh Lake. I was camped at the designated site just past leanto #2 and had to put up with the noise from a loud group at leanto #5 (across the lake) the entire 3 days. Contrast that to the first two nights at Little Crab Pond, where I had peace, quiet and solitude. Pharaoh Lake is a really beautiful spot. I came to the conclusion that in the future, if I want to camp on the lake, I will do so early and late in the season.

Yeah, Whortleberry is nice. There's actually two designated tent sites there but neither gets much use because there isn't a marked trail to the pond. The first site is on the north shore, all the way down at the West end of the pond. It's a nice site, with plenty of flat ground.
The second site is on the east shore. There's not as much flat ground here, but the site is a nice one for watching the sun set for sure.

Whortleberry is one of my favorites. I've never seen anyone else there, even when Pharaoh Lake is packed. It's a slight bushwhack so maybe that keeps most people away.
I didn't know there are more than one campsite. I only found the one on the North end. Will look harder next time.
Oh I'd rather go and journey where the diamond crest is flowing...
