Nobody has it yet. Another clue: The portage seems so long as the trail angles northeast to the lake.

Its ironic my head is under the canoe while portaging, so I don't see as much as he does on portages. Many times just the ground below me and a little ways ahead.

I must confess I haven't been on the portage. I was able to guess based on the hints given but it truly was a guess. What pushed me to Angleworm was the final hint, as to why it seems so long. The Angleworm entry portage is pretty long and it heads northeast, it's on the west side of the BWCA, thought it might actually be it. :) I hope to hike the Angleworm Trail at some point in the next few years.

West side BWCA. Another view of the water feature. There is/was a boardwalk through this area.

There are two portages that can be used. Most paddlers choose this one, but they should wear their hiking boots.
