I could be wrong but I thought that the park rerouted the Side entry to Khash via the western coast line (rock wall, wood path) that intersect with the old "bog route" after it enters the woods? Is this route still open? If it is, it's a lot easier than the old bog trot.

Haven't heard this and doubt the possibility of a western route around the bog pond. There is a tremendous talus pile below the cliff that ends in the pond- this talus pile is huge, unavoidable and almost impossible to cross unburdened much less with a canoe. When the beavers were cooperative and the pond was navigable the portage path began a hundred yards past the talus pile. This path eventually intersects with the bog corduroy trail.

Photo is of talus pile- the base of it is in water/muck
