Beyond the Bowl, the third section of the hike begins. Lake views become fewer as the trail tends inland and goes through a lovely mixed hardwood and conifer (Cedar) forest for another 3.8 miles that ends at Mainland Campsite #1. About a mile before you reach the campsite the trail splits (at the split you are 5.2 miles from Meyers Beach and roundtrip back to the trailhead is 10.4 miles). Follow the sign, left to Lunch Beach or right to continue toward the campsite. There is a “stump privy” and marker along the trail in this area. The last mile of the trail is well marked, with short stretches on old logging roads, but pay close attention for arrows and signs that indicate turns. The trail eventually comes out on a beach. Walk east about 100 yards along the beach to the sign and trail that leads to the campsite perched just above the beach.
