Easiest portage on my entire trip. Good landings, flat, and wide. The only obstacle was a downed tree that I had to crouch under, but that will probably be cleaned up.

Easy portage with good footing.

Shallow landings and an easy enough walk through the woods.

When finding from Morgan the land seems to be a bit more difficult to find, but trust the map and it will show up. Overall, very easy portage that shouldn't cause any issues. 1/5

Unremarkable portage with good footing and not much elevation change. Put-in and take-out points are easy to find and easy to negotiate. The Morgan end of this portage is a bit muddy but there are logs to walk on alongside a channel for the canoe.
