The longest of the three marked portages, it definitely hits you a little harder than the previous two, but it's not really an issue. Just a bit of mud and rocks but overall not very technical.

Nothing significant here. Just an average portage difficulty along a pretty river.

Long and muddy - did not enjoy very much. Wider on BWCA side than Quetico side.

Not a difficult portage. The last of the portages if going down river so was a little tired so if may have felt longer than it really was.

This river takes on a whole different character in late July then when we came through here in June. A little messy when it rains, but not bad. We flew through here today.

Another nice portage with great views of the Horse River. Well used and maintained.

Very slightly muddy after a rainy morning, otherwise mostly flat, mostly unremarkable with average landings.

Again, another easy portage. 2 out of 10. All of these portages are very pretty, take your time to enjoy them!
