CII-

Thanks for the post and report.  My group just returned (I arrived home yesterday about noon) from a trip over much of the same ground.  Consider yourself lucky that you didn't head up to Adventure lake and try to make it via Haven/Gulch/Jigsaw to Wrist Lake.  The Jigsaw portages, over which a portion of our group traversed, was burned out and mostly resembled "pick-up-sticks" over the portage trail.  The portage time from Gulch to Wrist ran in excess of 6 hours of pulling canoes and packs over a "thatch" of logs.  We did run into a portage clearing crew on our way out and alerted them to the need to "re-open" the route.  I assume they will schedule clearing that area in the reasonably near future.
