Long time listener first time caller here. Just wondering how long folks think it will take two relatively experienced paddlers to get from entry point 55 to Swamp Lake?

Between 3.5 to 4 hrs is my guess.

Gull Lake to Cache Bay Ranger Station usually took me 3 hours solo on a dead calm lake. Swamp would be just a little longer. Tandem with steady effort 3-4 if its calm. Who knows if its windy. You might not get there in a day.
Leave very early, first light and you usually have a calm run. I stress the word usually. Every time I've jump off from Gull Lake into Saganaga I was on the water by 5:00 AM. I stayed at Way of the Wilderness outfitters bunkhouse, had donuts from the famous donut place in Grand Marais for my breakfast. Always saved a few for Janice if I was headed into Quetico.

Thank you for all of the detail, this is what I had in mind and had scheduled for. Hope Sag is smooth that day but with the end of September/early October who knows. Thanks again
