Thoughts on the Portage

WEll, upon review and consultation of a trip-planning website that calculate travel time based on ability and how many carries you typically do across a portage, I've rethought the three-portage into Parkside BAy route; by the calculations, doing a double carry across 3 portages totalling 1.4 kms was at LEAST 90 minutes longer than doing the single double carry across the 250ish metre Smoke Lake/Ragged Lake portage, even with then having to paddle around the point and back into Parkside bay....
