BWCAW route map

I just got back from a Boundary Waters canoe trip with three buddies, all of whom I’ve known since elementary school. Faced with some challenging weather (cold and wet, primarily) we opted to spend most of our days paddling and portaging.

Click on the image below to see a large map of our route. Photos by the end of the week.

Had a nice, short trip to the Cross River/Long Island Lake area of the BWCAW over Labor Day with Katie and Lola.

All the trip photos.

To the BWCAW we go

Woohoo. Reserved a permit for Cross Bay Lake for August 29. Just a short Labor Day weekend trip with my wife and my dog. It will be some much-need quality time after one of the craziest summers in memory. It will also be our first trip in the Gunflint Trail area in several years.
