Portage Description:
This may be a long portage, however, the first third is nice and flat and open (I think the road used to go farther). The second third is a little bit of your standard up and down, and wind around trail, The final third has some steep parts as you head down to the lake, but overall a lot better in person than it looks on the map, and our party of 5 had 3 rookies, none of which could carry a canoe or a food pack, so we two tripped the portage.

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

We found the Northwest site nearly completely unusable and swampy, not even a spot for one tent let alone 3. We camped in the north central site.....not the best spot ever but I have certainly been in worse. sufficient room for three tents. Never got to see the north east site as it was full while we were there.
