This portage is on the US side (west side). This is a short portage and fairly easy. Some big rocks to navigate. When on the north portage landing enjoy "Sag Falls".

Fairly easy. Steep part is short. Good landings on both sides.

Wonderful landings on both sides, Sag falls, and well maintained besides. This is a great portage along a popular route.

The portage is located very clearly on the West bank not the East. A little challenging in spots because of slanted bed rock.

There are actually 2 trails on the US side. A short but steep one for use in low to normal water levels, and a longer one for use during higher water. The short trail is quite steep and potentially treacherous, while the longer trail is more level though still rocky & a bit overgrown.

There is a portage of ~25 rods on the US side. It's easy to find, has decent landings and a good trail.
