Exercise caution on the portage from Cox Lake to Triangle Lake. There are a couple snowmobile trails that cross with the route. Follow Yellow arrows painted on the rocks and a couple inukshuks have been set up. Do not follow the orange ribbons on trees or you may find yourself back where you started! | ||

I didn't know you had to pay to park. Lucky I had a visa card. Bring some cash. On the other hand, I've never seen so many blueberries on a canoe trip! Bring pancake batter! | ||

Just came back from this trip. The portages are not marked well. Our party got separated and got lost between Loucks and Cox then again between Compass and Loucks. We called it the Bermuda Triangle. The water level is also very low and the portage into compass is really just a portage around compass with detour through the Bermuda Triangle. Campsites were very clean. | ||
