Portage Description:
We went this route in the both the summers of 2003 and 2004. Both times we bypassed the portage and choose to walk our canoes up the creek between the two lakes. In 2003 the creek was free and clear and an easy alternative. In 2004 there was a beaver dam blocking the creek so we had to portage around the dam. The portage may now be a better alternative. The creek is now very easy to paddle up now that there is a beaver dam there.

Lake Description:

There are several campsites on Jean, including a few beach sites. Wind can be a major factor on this lake.
