This portage is no longer marked on my McKenzie map. Despite that, it seems to be as well trod as the rest of the portages in the area: muddy, a little overgrown, and with narrow landings. The high traffic zone doesn't really kick in until Horseshoe/Caribou on down to Winchell.

Kind of a low area, so this portage was pretty muddy when we visited. Not horribly long, but long enough to feel your pack on your shoulders.

Roots, rocks, mud, but otherwise, a nice medium length portage.
