Bob: I would also suggest going in at Lake One and heading for Insula or Alice, coming out the way you came in. By the time you get to Hudson, the crowds are gone. Although you are going through the burn area from a few years ago, I was there two years ago and its really not that bad; there are many untouched campsites available. Not too many portages, and the longest one is 80 or 90 rods. The rest are much shorter. If you push, you can make Insula in one day, but its a very easy two day trip, and an easy 3 to Alice.

p.s. - With your knee, I would suggest getting a lighter boat ;-)
There are no strangers here, only friends who haven't yet met!
