There is a small cellar hole located near the power line southeast of the canoe carry on East Bear Island. The cellar hole at Camp Lawrence is located along the West Beach trail. It has a huge [diameter] pine tree in the center of the hole. This pine tree could be well over two centuries old.

I am aware of the cellar hole on SE Bear. Regarding the Lawrence cellar hole, where does the west beach trail run. I'm generally familiar with the camp and know west beach and the cabin there. Are you referring to a trail that seems to head to the basketball court area or one that runs more southerly across the island towards the main lodge? Or perhaps another?

Many thanks!

The West Beach trail starts from the Senior area at the top of the hill beyond Hamblet Lodge and runs to the west shore of the island near the old West Beach Cottage, and south of the chapel which is located on the rocky rise just north of the beach where the campers' water skiing and wake boarding programs are held.
