08/27/2020 04:24PM I am pretty sure the only way to get on Trout is by portage hence the lack of motor traffic. If you have a canoe the shorter portage is beautiful but the longer one is flatter and will allow for trolley. The west side of the lake had few mosquitoes as well! That paddle can be difficult if you're going into the wind. Thank you for sharing! |

08/27/2020 03:06PM We had two nice days out and back for paddling across Vermilion. About 3 hours, but not bad. I wouldn't want to do it with a big headwind though. |

08/27/2020 07:53AM Sounds like a great trip! Have always wanted to check out Trout and Pine. Did you guys paddle across Vermillion or get a tow? |
