Description

After passing an obstructing tree and a large river-right boulder (45.810524, -88.366105), the signed portage trail is 200 feet ahead on the right (45.810674, -88.365339). At low flows, submerged rocks may require going just past then coming back upriver to the landing. The portage trail is 440 feet (with a steep, rocky end) and provides excellent scouting for the falls.
