Portage start

The entrance to a pretty gorge is a slot that is probably not runnable.    Boaters who paddle to this spot will likely benefit from help getting themselves and their boats out of the water and up the rock to where the slabs are lower angle.  Other boaters will start the portage further upstream  or simply avoid this section by launching below the portage. The portage is easy walking on slabs high above the creek on river left.    The total portage distance is around 700 to 800 feet.
