From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Camp Lake (located at 57°2′N 135°5′W / 57.033°N 135.083°W / 57.033; -135.083) is a small snow-melt and rain-fed lake that feeds into the Blue Lake watershed on Baranof Island in the Alexander Archipelago in the Alaskan Panhandle. Camp Lake is a popular destination for the first night on the Baranof Cross-Island Trail due to its surrounding alpine meadow and the beautifully-clear nature of the lake. Camp Lake is actually not named on USGS maps but is informally named by Sitka residents for its prime aforementioned characteristics. Camp Lake sits between Bear Mountain and Mount Bassie and atop a small headwall on the Medvejie Lake valley even though it feeds into the Blue Lake watershed.
