Sweet POD today....but one rough portage!

pd

Ha . . . yeah, today's pic is the view from the top of that portage!


Is this the same portage that's listed by 2 different paddlers as being EASY in the portage database?

Maybe they were mountain goats because it sure looks like a helluva climb in that pic?

If I'm not mistaken, today's shot was taken atop a cliff, not far or even directly above the Darky Lake picto.  I doubt Bill was "portaging" much more than his camera. 

I'm guessing the "portage" comment was a bit tongue-in-cheek but then, again, since so many of my body parts are failing me these days, maybe my memory is, too....

Jimbo   Cool

My comment/question ties into my previous comment about recommending a site on Lonely Lk as being a nice one. R8 I believe it was.

Paddle Planner poster gave it 1 star?

Almost looks like a Rainbow in the top left corner.
If YB took a portage trail to get this view, I can't for the life of me understand how anyone could rate that "Easy"?  Huh Undecided Undecided

Today's POD looks like a feast in the making.  Whats inside the foil?

Which campsite is that? It looks like a great fire grate/kitchen area.

That's a pretty big grate Bill, did you haul it in or was it stashed in the bush?

It looks like a large version of a backpackers grill which I take on solo trips.
