"Stairway to Heaven". Truly a grind up the steep section. But footing was good and solid with no ankle-twisters. Just plodding one step at a time all the way up the Wall.

We were headed toward Muskeg, so went down the steep hill that makes this portage famous. Going up would have been truly brutal.

At the half way point on the trail there is a steep cliff. You climb rock steps to the top. This is known as the WALL. The rest is all level

Absolutely brutal portage. Extremely steep (downhill going west) about halfway through. Be careful!
