Portage Description: There is a creek running to the east in a bay at the North end of Isabella that empties into an Unnamed lake that goes into North Bay of Basswood.
To first enter the creek there is a 28 rod portage that is rocky but for that distance is not bad. The stream will take you all the way to the unnamed lake although you will need to get out your canoe for some shallow area and dam pullovers. The creek has a sandy bottom so its easy to walk in. At the end of the unnamed lake is another dam. Portage your gear to the landing below the dam. Then pull your canoe over the dam and down the stream to the landing. GPS location of the portages are (WGS-84): 48.17537, -91.49308/48.17486, -91.49137 : 48.16879, -91.48431/48.16851, -91.48457 Lake after portage: Basswood Known campsites: not sure Lake Description: Portage from Basswood into: Unnamed* *Between Basswood's North bay and Burke Newton Indiana Unnamed* *on the way to Kett Sunday Basswood* *Back Bay Basswood* *Pipestone Bay Poacher South Burke Sunday Burke Unnamed* *between Nest and Basswood Sucker Basswood River Good Basswood* *Back Bay Basswood* *Jackfish Bay Crooked Indiana
