Portage Description:
It's really not as difficult as it looks on the map. Just a long walk. Elevation change is gradual and easily "doable". About 2/3ds way across towards Oyster is a new detour around a fresh beaver pond that only looked 2 years old.

Lake after portage: Hustler
Known campsites: 5
Lake Description:

I spent two gorgeous days here at the "central" campsite on the north shore, just North of the island. The campsite is awesome in the red pines. Plenty of Pike here if you time it right with lots of 3 lb'ers that hit at almost anything.
