Portage Description:
Starting from the river towards Ferguson, the portage is a little swampy. Some waist deep mud about halfway thru. Some very large trees along the way, but not too steep. The portage actually ends at a pond which takes a minute to cross, then necessitating a short but steep carryover of about 10-15 rods. Both maps I had were incorrect. We found our own way.
Lake after portage: Ferguson
Known campsites: 2
Lake Description:
Very clear water. Decent island campsite in middle of lake. From the NE corner of Ferguson is a winding river/creek directly into McKenzie Lake which is easily passable (no portages needed).
