The remaining five portages are less than 2/10 of a mile each. Depending on the weather/wind conditions, we may paddle through Spitfire Lake and into Lower St. Regis Lake to finish at Paul Smiths College, or alternatively we could end at Upper St. Regis Landing for shorter mileage. Participants will need to carry their own canoes and equipment across the portages.
