Portage Description:
The good news is there's not a lot of elevation change on this monster. There's some deadfall scattered along this trail, but worse, there's a pond about 1/3 the way in. Couldn't tell for sure if it was beaver work or if it was just high water due to recent rains, but it was enough you could paddle if you want, and it got to be about 3 feet deep. Further towards Buck, this trail was very overgrown, and very swampy. Muck up to the knees at times.
