1) Cross Bay to Poplar. This route generally runs west to east, with the prevailing winds. Winchell and Gaskins are two lakes that I really want to see no matter which route. Poplar seems a convenient place to end. I assume Rockwood would be a good outfitter to use, and they could shuttle us to the entry point and be our ending point on Poplar.
2) Poplar to Winchell, out-and-back. In through Lizz, down to Winchell as you did.... Maybe two nights on Winchell and back out the way we came.
3) The loop you did.
What did you think of the northern lakes (Omega, Hensen, Meeds)? This would help me decide between the out-and-back and the loop.
Was Winchell fantastic? Some seem to think it's one of the very best lakes in the park!
Thanks for your feedback.
