docfinny: "After more digging, some maps have those 2 portages marked as the Sauvage and Bonhamme and I was able to find some information on this forum about those (nasty).
Anyone travelled them in the recent past?"
The portage maintenance map produced by Ontario Parks indicates that those portages were worked in May. Still, a lot can happen in a couple of months. During my late June trip (in another area of the park) I encountered blowdowns and deadfall when the map indicated the portage had been worked only 2 weeks earlier. It happens!
