Planning to spend about 4 days beginning next weekend canoeing and camping in the Whitney Area either at Little Tupper or Lake Lila. Been all over the Adirondacks but never to these lakes.
Anyone have any comments, thoughts, advice about a great campsite, etc. Thanks. Michael
thoughts
Lake Lila - 1/3 mile carry, Little Tupper - none
Little Tupper - larger and more room to explore
Lila - prettier IMO
Wildlife - far more loons on Little Tupper
Campsites - both nice
Wind - potential for much tougher conditions on Little Tupper
yup
wow, martin hit all the points perfectly. “what he said!”

If have the drive to do it, 4 days is plenty of time to stay at both and do the traverse in between the two lakes. I posted lots of details on this trip at the ADK forum in the following thread. Enjoy.

Plus, w/ 4 days, you can easily add the newly opened Round Lake to the itinerary. Enjoy !
