Voyageur map 4 has this as 180 rods, but 220 seems correct. 100ft of climb from the water, but it was not too bad. Trail was wide and well established.

While it is on the longer side for a entry portage, it was mostly flat and wide.

Medium length. A few steep spots, occasional rocks/roots, and can be a little wet in spots. My 8-year daughter made the double portage just fine. :)

This is an easy walk in the woods with "some" elevation. In is easier that out but I would give the path a beginner rank. Watch for some spots with roots and rocks. there are also a couple of spots that can be "wet." The second "bridge" is about 2/3 of the the way in just to give you an idea of how far you have to go. ;-)

About what you'd expect for an entry point trail of this length. The only caveat being, that if you exit out this trail, there will be a big climb just after the boardwalk up to the parking lot.
