Short and fairly easy portage after an interesting creek paddle from Temperance. We encountered a Moose just into the Brule side. It was after sundown by the time we got here, so the big game was a fun surprise.

Agree with the others. Even though it's rocky, pretty hard to beat a 10 rod portage. Just watch your footing.

When the water is high the landing on Brule and the short trail are much tougher

Short, Rocky, Easy. 2 of us humped our kayaks over the log jam and skipped the portage altogether.

Agree with previous comment, short but very rocky.

Steep rock landings. Short but very rocky trail.
