Difficulty Rating: Rating 8 (scale of 1 to 10 from easiest to hardest)
Maintenance Rating Rating 2 (scale of 1 to 5 from poorly maintained to well maintained)
Entry Point: 4 - Crab Lake and Cummings from Burntside Lake
Approximate Date of Visit: 09/23/2015
Portage Notes: A rocky, though manageable, landing on the Cummings end. For the most part, the trail is pretty much a straight forward path with minimal challenges beyond the overall length. There is some minor undulation along the way as the trail parallels a swamp for most of it's length and even crosses it a few times (trail will likely be muddy in those sections). Ironically, the trail terminates at a small sugar sand beach on the Buck end.

Portage Notes: This portage is pretty long, but other than the bog at its far western end, not to bad at all.
