Portaging Direction: From the Vern River downstream to the Vern River

Rocky landing with some large boulders. Water isn't very deep if you need to stand in it.

Only 4 rods long and its pretty flat.

The pullout at the downstream end of this portage is easily managed.

Relatively small rocks and a shallow water landing to start this portage upstream along the Vern River towards Homer Lake.

About as easy as portages get in the Boundary Waters.
