West side of Marks Pond offers backcountry camping in Newfoundland and Labrador, providing a remote wilderness experience for self-sufficient campers. As a backcountry site, visitors should be prepared with all necessary equipment and supplies for primitive camping conditions. The location requires proper planning and backcountry skills, including navigation, waste management, and Leave No Trace principles. Those interested in visiting should contact local tourism authorities or provincial parks offices to confirm current access conditions, any permit requirements, and seasonal availability before planning their trip.
