Attach are three (3) photos (same view) of a portage landing on this lake. I am assuming someone will easily recognize it. It's not far from an entry point (on a different lake).

Sorry, I don't have any other photos.
Two ways to get to this lake.
The easy way: one (1) lake and one (1) portage.
The hard way: five (5) lakes and seven (7) portages.

There is a small waterfall on the stream that runs parallel to the portage trail (landing shown in the first set of photos).

Yes, it's Vernon. I guess this was harder than I thought it would be.

p.s. The photos are the portage landing leading to Brule Lake.

Ughhhh I looked at Vernon twice! I really thought red rock, the one portage looks a lot alike.

For the second time Leslie’s dad. Don’t add the answer to the initial post heading when it has been guessed correctly. Others would like to continue to “play” even though they can’t be on this site everyday.

Thanks!
