Special Comments: 

Although there are many reports for this trip, I hope that my perspective is slightly different. We've owned kayaks for 10 years but never used them for backcountry travel or camping.  Although my wife and I are in decent shape, my bad knees and the challenges in portaging kayaks meant that we needed to find a route with few portages. This route fits the bill. Please go to my blog, which has a very detailed account of the trip, including daily audio logs and lots of photos.
