We paddled that direction on that route on Aug 4/01. On July 31 there had been a big blow that brought down a lot of trees in the area. We met a group the day before that had to crawl under a bunch of windfall. We decided to split the portage into thirds (portage - paddle - portage). When we had paddled as far up as we could there was a little bit of a slog back up to the portage trail, but my 5 and 9 year old boys agreed that shortening the carry was a good idea. The trees will be cleared now so you can do whatever you like, but if I were back there I would split the carry again. Have fun it's nice through those lakes.
