Portage Description:
The only real portage from Russell Lake into Chatterton Lake is around the curve south of the falls on the east side of the small bay. Although the Fisher maps show a portage on the north side of the falls, it is not a portage. At best, it is a trail allowing you to see some of the falls.

Lake after portage: Chatterton
Known campsites: 4
Lake Description:

Chatterton Lake has a couple very nice campsites. The one above Chatterton Falls if sweet, as are the two below Split Rock Falls. Fishing in both falls will produce smallmouth.
