Portage Description: Located where Newt and Little Newt are closest together. It is in a bay. There are reeds in the back of the bay (southwest part of lake). There is a trail through the reeds on the left--portage is at the end of the trail. This would get an EASY rating, except the water was so low the trail was only that quicksand type mud and we had to bushwhack around it to the portage. If the water was higher you could just float up to it. Lake after portage: Little Newt Known campsites: not sure Lake Description: Little Newt is more like a small pond. Saw small largemouth bass swimming among the lily pads. Portage from Little Newt into: Crooked Gardner Bay
