Rock, Welcome, North Grace, Bonnechere, Kenneth loop

With winter (mostly) behind us, the trip wheels have been set in motion. We typically explore the northern part of the park, but this year we would like to try something different. The plan is for a mid-July trip from Rock to Welcome, then North Grace (plus a rest day), Bonnechere, Kenneth, and exiting at Cache. Any feedback or helpful suggestions would be most welcomed, including lake stay options/alternatives.
Thanks in advance!
Rich

Nice Paddle to Welcome from Rock. Water levels on  Galipo River should still be OK  then. Last I was through there it had a few dams but nothing crazy. Nice beach sites on Welcome. Not sure about North Grace as we stayed on Louisa from Florence. Aim for Gaga Site on Bonnechere if you can. Great spot.  #1 on PCI I think. I always enjoy the paddle though Phipps, Kirkwood and Pardee Lakes up toward Head lake. The western site on Kenneth is beautiful as well. The portage to Kenneth was crazy muddy when I was there last.
