Boundary Waters Day Trip

One perfect BWCA day — permits, portages, and shore lunch handled.

The Boundary Waters is forty minutes up the Echo Trail, and a first trip is much better with someone who knows the entry points. We handle the permit, the canoes, the shuttle, and a proper shore lunch (walleye when the lake cooperates, excellent regardless); you handle a paddle and one modest portage. Expect eight to ten miles of paddling, granite shorelines, and a respectable chance of moose.

Graduates of the February navigation seminar get first crack at registration, and it matters — these run eight seats and sell out.
