Has anybody navigated the Range River between Sandpit lake and Basswood's Jackfish Bay recently? I am interested in how difficult this river/stream will be to float, entering from Mudro on Aug 9th.

It's a breeze. One portage on the Range around a rapids (river right I believe), the stream is wide, scarcely moving and holds lots of water. Portage out of Sandpit can be confusing- follow the portage towards Range Lake, about sixty yards from the take out there is a trail(where most of the traffic goes)heads off to the left, take the left to the put in on the Range.

Nobody exists on purpose, nobody belongs anywhere, everybody’s going to die.
