I took several pics on the portage from the Stanton Bay parking lot to PIckerel Lake. Overall, a pretty easy, relatively flat 100 rod portage with a combination of boardwalk and trail with some rocky sections on each end thrown in for good measure.

The pic with the red canoe is just off the parking lot at the beginning of the portage. A short, rocky downhill to start the portage. Pretty flat until you get to the last 50-60 yards or so, then it's just stepping on (and over) rocks in the trail down to the water. Nice view of Stanton Bay and the waters of Pickerel Lake.

I think that portage, with all of its "modern conveniences" is actually outside of the park boundary.

I was last there in July of 2020. The Pickerel end was a full on beach.

Argo: "I think that portage, with all of its "modern conveniences" is actually outside of the park boundary."

If I remember correctly, there is a small sign about halfway through the portage that marks the park boundary.

Just so.

The end isn't a beach, but a pretty easy end to a portage. Used it many times.

Thanks for the photos after the periodic threads discussing this portage.

Ahhhhh….. memories

Thank you!
