MP, congratulations on achieving your goal! I hope to see you on Irvine Lake in WCPP with NCTRY in August. I cleaned all the portages into Irvine in 2013 but if you need a little more bushwhacking I think Jimbo can assist you in following his choice of Irvine entry. There has been a big forest fire and massive "snowdown" on his "path" but it sounds like you are qualified to try it.
