Lake 80 has a creek that can be seen flowing into an adjacent lake while paddling on the adjacent lake and nearing one of the two portages into Lake 80. This photo is from a campsite looking northeast....

Lake 80 is a destination lake....in fact, some paddlers just go there for a day trip as opposed to camping on the lake. Here's a photo of one of the portages you can take to exit the lake. The second photo is of the creek that flows out of Lake 80.....

Lake 80 is one of the most famous lakes in Quetico. Only a few paddlers get to it each season. If you come from the north, the first photo today shows a portage take-out (you're facing south) that leads to a creek that requires two more portages, then a paddle through a similarly sized lake to the final short portage where the creek outflow was shown in Pic 5.







To exit Lake 80, you then either retrace your path heading north, or you head west where you'll have a couple lengthy portages separated by an oil-colored beaver pond, then a scenic creek paddle separated by a mongo beaver dam, then a last portage into a well-known walleye lake. Here's a photo facing west of the scenic creek after the longest portage in this stretch....

Delahey

Delahey it is. The famous Olive jar is found on the westernmost island....

Delahey. Another lake I have to get into! Lake 81 is up.

The contents of the Olive jar and the condition of the portages refute the notion that only a few paddlers a season make it to Delahey.
