A challenging route with portages marked but still being cleared. A nice sense of remoteness in a wilderness area that is off limits to motors. It's best to cartop the canoe to Little Tupper Lake (or have us deliver the boat) and then have us shuttle your car to Lake Lila. Longest portage is 1.7 miles.
The best map for this route is the Adirondack Paddler's Map The Whitney Wilderness.
