I have always loved the ride up to Green's Basin! It's a long ride or us now that we're on Rattlesnake so we only do it a couple of times a summer but while summering on the lake in the 50's / 60's I used to ride up there with my Dad virtually every night (we were starting from near Melvin Village back then). Lots of neat coves to explore. Always liked checking out behind Black Island...though you must keep an eye out for rocks. Buzzel Cove is pretty cool and offers exposure to families of loons. The whole ride is peaceful and keeps you on your toes navigating...especially if you are an infrequent visitor.
