I did this hike last year, but in the other direction, and we stayed at different campsites. It’s a good one!

Was the bridge back up on the Parent/Disappointment portage, or did you have to go through the water? The bridge was out last year so we had to go through knee deep fast moving water.

The spring ticks on that trail are legendary!


You made good time, it is a fun trail and a beautiful lake to hike around.

I did basically this exact same trip a few years back, including probably the same campsites. This was Memorial Day weekend, and we pulled 200+ ticks off my dog. We had permethrin treated clothes on and that helped a great deal. Having that many ticks on you is a really gross feeling.
