que-
Jimbo-

I stand corrected.  We DID use the new lot last year.

I do remember swinging into the parking lot via a left-hand turn.  When I glanced at the map, it just looked to me that the lake entry was a bit further south.  And, I guess we didn't ACTUALLY cross a stream in route to the lake (although there seemed to be plenty of water in a few spots).

I hope I got it straight now... The "new " portage is the one that opened up last spring and was fixed up a bit last fall. Like Marlin55388 said, it would be nice to see the corrected map.

Maybe this will help (since I confused the issue).

The old portage was approximately 60 meters.  The new portage is approximately 70 meters.

This post on WCA's Canadian Canoe Routes forum has links to a number of trip reports (and other stuff)  that may help with WCPP planning.

That forum also has similar info on Atikaki and Nopoming Provincial Parks adjoining WCPP on the Manitoba side. The links for these two parks are mixed in with the rest of the Manitoba stuff, so you have to dig a bit more:
