east pit is foot access only it's not a long walk but the hill is steep going in is fun ride the tobbogan down coming out sucks try around where you come onto the ice or down about mid way its not very wide so i pop holes every 20feet all the way across and move till i find them

Mark-the lake is approx. 1/4 -1/3 mile walk from the parking lot, uphill then down to the lake. Access is walking only as it is a fenced wildlife reserve. I've never ice fished it, but in open water most people fish the end bay when you come down the hill. I've had the best luck in a bay on the southside of the lake about 1/2 way west or at the far west end. some nice fish in there! good luck !
