sns	01/09/2021 08:04PM   Good question about orientation! I did mean the photo is framed looking north. First hint: Depending on your map sources, the total portage length to/from this lake is about 330-345 rods. Edit: I now see another source for portage distance, so let's say ~275 to 350, to be safe

sns	01/10/2021 03:41PM   In the second photo there is a portage on the far shore, a bit left of the low point of the horizon

sns	01/10/2021 09:49AM   From roughly the same spot as the first photo, this one is looking more Northwesterly. I think the low point on the horizon is close to dead-on NW.
sns	01/10/2021 11:47AM   Another hint: In the first photo, there's a portage landing on the furthest shoreline that is visible more-or-less directly above the human's head (perhaps a hair to the right).

airmorse	01/10/2021 09:27PM   Damn I've been there. Went in thru Eugene where we we camped for two nights. I remember Fat as being smaller than what the first photo shows. How the mind fades as we age.

JimmyJustice	01/11/2021 07:24AM   SNS, so you are saying there is someone better than cowdoc at this game (e.g. MJ)?
cowdoc	01/10/2021 07:28PM   Fat. The outfitters portage is the long one of variable length. The one in from Eugene is shorter and that portage clue threw me off.
sns	01/10/2021 07:34PM   Well I could stand to lose five or even ten pounds, but it's a tad insensitive to call me Fat! Was just waiting to hand this back to you Cowdoc, nicely done.
maxxbhp	01/11/2021 05:30PM   I think doc's been to every lake at least 3 times.
sns	01/11/2021 11:43AM   JimmyJustice: "SNS, so you are saying there is someone better than cowdoc at this game (e.g. MJ)?" There may well have been some better, but like MJ, they are no longer in their prime - Cowdoc is the star of our times!

bottomtothetap	01/09/2021 07:55PM   Who's looking due north--the subject or the photographer?
