Some elevation but a shorter portage. A few beautiful cliffs in the woods to watch for when you aren't wearing a canoe for a hat.

We had a tough time finding this thing. It is located east of the site across the way and 50 feet from where Mckenzie has it. This portage goes straight up and is rocky and muddy along the way.

Steep up and down. Watch out for deep mud just off the shore at landing. I sunk thigh high.
