I plan on entering leano sometime around the middle of Aug.
for a three week jaunt of the southern end of the park. The
question I have is there normally enough water in the small
stream leaving Blueberry Lake to get me over to Sylvia, and
eventually Eagle Lake without to much trouble.I would also
welcome any info. on the lakes along my route over to Eagle.
This is going to be a very laid back trip,travel one day then
rest for two and fish and explore and repeat till I run out
of food.

I suppose you've been into WCPP from the western side? Based on your location, it would be a shorter drive to use an EP on that side (and given a southern swing, Garner Lake would seem the obvious choice).

There are a couple of report about the Sylvia area, but I'm thinking the best source would likely be Claire Q. (of WCPP park staff)

I also want to do a southern swing through the park along that same route. So, I'd be interested to hear any recent details of travel through that area (entering from either the east or west side of the park).

Looking at doing "The Edge" route? Generally, the water levels are good all season along this small system unless we have a particularly dry summer - happens. You will not regret the paddle from the Kilburns SW through Landing Crane and Blueberry. The port out of Dragon can be rough... it's been cleared last season but probably needs more work. I've always wanted to basecamp on Blueberry and explore its east end, poke around into the smaller lakes that feeds into Blueberry. Lake trout here, no walleye. Very pretty lake... caribou hang in this area in the winter.

Then you enter the small system and also an older burn... open marsh land for a bit as well. You come out of the burn on the last port into Sylvia... and into walleye country again. A camp south of the park has access to Sylvia, Bilko, Veronica. You may see a couple of boat caches here. I spotted a caribou swimming across Sylvia once.

There is SM bass in Beaver... likely introduced years ago by well intended anglers. SM Bass are not native of our waters up here and are considered invasive species. If you catch some, enjoy them. Very tasty lol. The passage west toward Talon River is pretty, rocky, small rapids. Again, it was traveled by our crew 2 summers ago but their focus was the clearing of snowdown damage. The route could stand another visit. Keep in touch for updates as we may have it done by the time of your visit.

Hope this info is useful. Do not hesitate to contact me by e-mail if you have further questions woodland.caribou.mnr@ontario.ca

Thank you for all the information, it alleviates a lot
of my questions about this area. I will shoot you an
e-mail in July for the latest water levels.
Thanks again
