Trip Introduction:
Goal was to get to Sagus and back in 4 nights, see if the walleye hype was real and do a trip that wasn't a basecamp trip. Disclaimer: we traveled fast, partially due to favorable winds most of the trip (we aren't great paddlers). We also single portaged, my wife is a portage machine and I'm just stubborn enough to try and keep up.
