Description
Crow Island is located off the northeast side of Hog Island in a relatively protected, easily accessible, and picturesque stretch of water. These factors have led to heavy use of the island, both by the local community and by other recreational boaters. If the island is full, nearby Strawberry is a good alternative.
Crow Island's topography is mostly low and even, with exposed bedrock around the entire shoreline. The interior has a mature spruce and deciduous forest that has experienced blowdowns. The island can be accessed midway down the west side and also at several points on the northeast side. There are two primary camping areas, one at the north end and one in the center of the island. Informal paths lead between campsites and from the campsites to the shore.
