12 ish rods measured by step counting. This is likely going to be your 2nd, not 1st portage coming from North Bay Basswood as there is a well-constructed beaver dam half-way up the lily pad covered creek. This portage is straight-forward.

Pretty easy portage that leads south to North Bay - but first a nice N-S trip through lily-pads!
