Portage Description:
Took Moose River off Moose Loop (Echo Tr.) to Big Moose Lake. Water high in river, would not want to do this if the river was low. Portages to Big Moose: 1st 166 fairly easy but generally uphill. Across some nice ledgerock. The 60 rods directly into lake considered easy.

Lake after portage: Big Moose
Known campsites: 5
Lake Description:

Large shallow lake with some small walleye and smallmouth. Difficult to fish in the wind. Very rocky.
