As others have written, this is short and sweet. Both landings are easy, but Alder slightly more so. Quick walk, no issues. Worth walking to check if the two nice Canoe sites are open before settling for an Alder site.

One of the easiest portages I've done. You could jog this one in about 30 seconds with how flat it is. Some rocks but still very clear.

Short and sweet. On the Canoe end you can quickly determine if the two nicest sites on Canoe are already taken.

Pretty easy. Nice little stretch between paddles.

Easy. 1/5. Follows the creek into Canoe.

About as non-descript as you could hope a portage would be. There's a tiny stream that runs alongside with some nice small rapids gurgling into Canoe lake.
