05/12/2015 09:40PM You have nothing to be sorry for. Getting to Hoare is the mother lode. I am debating walking in from Allen but I will most likely chicken out since I will be solo. If I do make it I will let you know. |

09/04/2012 11:17AM good trip idea. a good friend and I came in from hoare and left to allan into poobah. We did this about 15 years or so ago. September trip. no one around for days. from camel into hoare is somewhat straight forward, with good map reading and compass skills. well worth it. the way out to Allen was much more difficult. even less people have gone this way. Trust the compass! when we went through, there were lots of mangled blow downs. We scouted the route to allan after fishing hoare. it was very dark by the time we got back to the canoe. and we did not get the grouse we were chasing. Would have gone good with the lake trout dinner. this was before the 99' storm. May be difficult, but not impossible. just know what you are getting into. Good luck. schells |

09/04/2012 09:13AM Thanks Ho Ho! I'm looking forward to your trip report as well. Kahsh is just the coolest lake and I want to somehow incorporate it into my trip next year. |

09/03/2012 09:19PM Ho Ho, I sincerely hope you do a proper report of your trip. Pics, maps, fungi,... the works. |

09/03/2012 12:34PM Suzanette, Burt, Marj, Joyce is a very nice route to Kahshahpiwi. However, if that seems too slack, you can also loop down via Brent and McIntyre to Sarah and take the portages from the north end of Sarah through Irene (not labeled on some maps) to Kahshawpiwi. We did both sets of portages out of and back into Kahsh on our trip a week ago, and they are both really great, with lots of up and down, huge pines, and little traffic. Details available upon request. |

We did the Hunter Island loop from Sag in June, heading back south and east on the ML portages and the lakes you mention. Poobah is beautiful, ML portages are tough, the other lakes are very scenic. You'll enjoy it. |

09/01/2012 05:36PMquote Kiporby: "Thanks Tom! I checked those out. Seems like a good way to get to Kahsh..." The biggest white pine I ever saw is on one of these portages right next to the trail. It's around 5-6 feet in diameter at the base. Lots of big trees in the area. |

09/01/2012 05:31PM There truly are no portages there, not even a hint of a portage. It's not for the faint of heart. |

09/01/2012 10:47AM There's some real nice portaging in the Marj and Joyce to Kahsh region. I have details about a real nice site on Joyce in my 2011 trip report. |

09/01/2012 08:32AM Once to Poobah I'm thinking about doing the Memory Lane Portages to Conmee, Suzannette, Burt, Marj, Joyce to Kahshahpiwi. Paddling out Saganaga, so I'm still working on that part...... |

08/31/2012 09:17PM I would start working out tomorrow. :) That trip sounds ambitiously awesome. |

08/31/2012 05:25PM Am I crazy? :) Who can tell me more about this area? Seriously thinking about this area for Spring 2013. I would be coming from the North--Pickerel Lake entry. |
