I am planning a trip the first week of September, Can anyone tell me if Vanishing Pond has vanished and is the creek accessible down to Lt Doe Lake? Thanks.

With all the rain this year, I'll be surprised if the pond actually vanishes.
Regardless, when it finally does vanish it will be listed as a travel advisory on the FoAP website. You can check out all current advisories by clicking here.

I do not remember an advisory in past years for Vanishing Pond but I could be mistaken.

They do - and the wording they use is kind of funny too - 'Vanishing Pond has vanished'.
Perhaps water levels in the past couple years have been good for it, and though I can't recall which years specifically, I've definitely seen this advisory a few times in the past 6 or 7 years.

Pretty sure I saw the advisory last year.

I remember paddling vanishing pond (also known as FML Pond if I'm not mistaking - someone crossed out Vanishing on the Portage sign and replaced it with FML) in the Spring of 2016 it was a slight struggle for my friends' heavier 3 person boat to make it across... We decided on an alternate route on the way back down a few days later... Always a good time though!!
