Portage Description:
1- 40 rods - average - Some windfalls at the beginning, portage intersects the Pow-Wow trail take a left on the Pow-Wow to shorten the portage some.

2- 110 rods - average - Mostly level trail that gets muddy at about half way. There is a little boardwalk over the worst of it.

3- 27 rods - easy - Just a nice easy little portage around the rapids.

4- 27 rods - average - Steep climb from the river with steps to help. Over the hill and right back down.

5- 41 rods - easy - Nice flat path kind of rocky in spots.

6- 10? rods - easy - Very easy short portage, could bypass it if you wanted to run the very small rapids.

7- 190 rods - average - The portage is just down stream from the unmarked campsite (McKenzie Map) long up and down portage on a decent path, more down than up.
