A nice walk in the woods with a little elevation gain toward the end when coming out of Pocket. The woods were very pretty through here though.

Very scenic portage along an nice creek. Old growth of cedars surround the portage.

Rocky landing on the lake end, muddy put in on the creek end. From the lake the trail drops as it follows the course of Finger creek. The scenery & sounds of the water babbling & gurgling makes this one more tolerable.

An enjoyable walk through the cedars along the creek.
