One easy log portage in the beginning flat section, and a tree overhanging the second significant ledge rapid with branches blocking the lines. Very small eddy on the right to portage but an easy portage.

The old trail portage up and around the 45' waterfall is more of an animal trail now. It's still doable but a lot of work. Might consider the river level portage of the waterfall but it does have some exposure.

Didn't do the lower section so can't report on the conditions but there has been a lot of fish habitat work below Double Blind Date.
