Kelso to Sawbill

I packed up about 530 am and was back at Sawbill at 730 am. There I saw the first people I had seen since day 2.

I had a great time with great weather (a little on the hot side). I saw 3 occupied campsites in 6 days. After Cherokee creek on day one, I would see 4 canoes in the water. Days 3-6, the number of moose out numbered the number of people. (1-0).

My recommendations if you decide to do this route. -Enjoy the Frost Lake portage. One of my favorites, I can't really explain why, I just liked the walk. Pack light or maybe bring 2 small packs instead of one large one, loading and unloading the canoe takes its toll.   Don't look at your watch or your map along the river. Both are useless.  Layover on Wine Lake  And finally, rent a helicopter for the Lujenida portage.
