The High end landing is wide with lots of areas to put in/take out. The Kerr side is mucky and gross. Its a short portage with a gradual up and down but very simple and easy.

We found the portage at High Lake to be a little east of the small island, not west of it like on the map.

Very nice, well used flat narrow trail with fairly easy access on both sides. The Kerr side can be a bit more difficult to put in and out of.

Very nice on the High end, not bad on the Kerr end.
