No didn't recognize the name of the lake. Most of my trips started in the Ely area Moose Lake Knife, into Basswood, Burke, Meadow, Noon, Sunday, Silence, Shady, Agnes, Louisa, etc.
Longest portages were from the South tip of Agnes into Meadow (3/4 mile) then a little short paddle on Meadow(1/8 mile) followed by a 1 mile portage into Burke. Those two back-to-back were murder.
On one trip my wife and I took 12 First Class Scouts up there for a 10 day wilderness trip. Talk about a chore, wow. But fun! LOL
