I'm thinking of a trip to Lower Pauness in a few weeks. I was wondering what the travel time by snow shoe would be to Lower Pauness? Thanks and any site suggestions are welcome.

Since it was brought up I was asking from entry point 14.

6.5 miles @ a good pace would be 7-8 hours...?
That would assume stops and 1MPH average...on snowshoes.

From where? I get close to 4 miles on Google Earth from EP 14 to Lower Pauness following the water. Just curious how this should be measured.

I used the trip maker and it came up with 6.6 miles from EP9 to Camp site #43... I see from EP14 it is 5.8 miles...my bad.

OK - I just went to lake over the beaver dam, not to site 43.

Thanks, it looks like it will take most of the daylight hours but can be done if we get an early start.

Is there much current on that stretch of water?
