General Comments | ||
| North Tea Lake can be very busy during the summer, stay away from the campsites on the W end of the lake.
Once on Biggar Lake, there are fewer crowd. The four portages to Three Mile Lake are long, but worth the solitude. I reccomend the campsites on the island on 3 Mile Lake. Although we did not, a day or two of relaxation is perfect on Three Mile L. The 2800m portage is long, but the majority of it is on a logging road; the last 200m is a very steep downhill. We encountered strong headwinds from the west on Manitou Lake, watchout. The P410 is shorter than the P550 beside it, but steep. | ||

I completed the K-mog, 3-mile loop but travelled in a clockwise direction. The 2800m portage into 3-mile is difficult, but once you get up the initial 200m uphill, it is a nice walk in the bush. I completed this loop in 3 days staying on Manitou the first night, Biggar the 2nd and was out by 2:30 the third day. Quality footwear is a must for the long portages between Manitou and Biggar. Lots of potential injuries and sandals aren't recommended. | ||
I completed the k-mog 3 mile loop in 2.5 days. Comming from k mog it was a blast seeing that we had mostly tail winds. Going clockwise avoided some serious head winds on three mile lake.But unfortunatley we had to come back on north tea on a North East wind. Huggin the northern line of N Tea lake was a must! Suggestions, definately give yourself time for bad conditions and rest. all in all great trip especially in the mongotasi hornbeam lake area. | ||
Is this a good trip for myself and myself my two boys who are 11 &twelve yrs old? | ||
