The boats are dragged up onto the small bit of land at the base and tied to a tree.

^^^ what Mike said. There's plenty of room for a couple canoes, but there's a fair amount of lifting/dragging involved. Landing on the left side (closest to the campground) is probably easiest as it's flatter over there.

On a side note, one of the routes on the Jolly Roger slab is named Shipwrecked. Apparently the FA team thought tying their canoe to the base was good enough, but an afternoon of wind/waves came close to sinking it.

ha! you pull it up onto a rocky incline and tie it off and hope that the 3 foot waves(that develop in the afternoon) don't swamp it! we did this climb last year and had fun bailing out the canoe with a nalgene. that lake gets rough!
