What is the Darky River to Tanner lake portage like?
How was the water level when you where there?

Just as important how was the fishing in Tanner?
Thanks...

The overall portage is medium long, with no major difficulties. At the Darky River end, the portage actually does not start at the river, but instead a short way up a tiny side stream. A few marshy steps.
At the Tanner Lake end, there is a medium significant climb up from the lakeside.
Most of the portage is fairly flat. I have been on this portage several times and it will either be clear or have some trees fallen depending on the year.
I have fished Tanner Lake with average success.
