Portage Description:
To add to Tom's comments, find the entrance to the creek at the beaver lodge. With the low water we experienced three portages and 3-4 drag throughs (aluminum rocks!). Those with Kevlar will experience 6-7 portages. The portages all start right and earlier than normal. Look for beaten down grass areas and exit there. They're short and flat, consequently easy, my wife only went up to her thighs in the muck twice.

Lake after portage: Boulder
Known campsites: 3
Lake Description:

The north site and island site are both 3 1/2 stars. For a diversion, drag your canoe over the dam into Jug Lake. We saw 30-40 mergansers there.
