    Where is Algonquin? #95



    The photo doesn't really convey how steep this portage section really is.

    No, it isn't Heart Attack Hill.

    You got it!   Jeff's map labels it the Double Devil's Staircase.  You can see a video of someone doing the staircase portion of the portage at https://vimeo.com/50797332

    Yeah, this view is seared in my mind.  That's a tough climb. I've never been happier to see a canoe rest (and a bench!) than when I got to the top of this one.
