08/22/2022 11:57AM We were just talking about whether we could squeeze in a weekend up there end of September--it gets overlooked bc everyone wants to get to Horse, but it's absolutely delightful in the fall and perfect for a short getaway <3 |

It's like you have the whole lake to yourself, and the leaves are gorgeous (if you like birch)"The Mudro entry never disappoints. The road in is spectacular and Mudro, Sandpit, and Range Lake area is great. |

08/21/2022 04:35PM Any of the outfitters along the Gunflint Trail can provide what you’re looking for. Great scenery, canoes, accommodations, restaurants. It’s all available. |

08/19/2022 08:05AM Go up the Sawbill Trail to Sawbill Lake, Baker Lake, or Kawishiwi Lake entry points. Sawbill Outfitters to rent canoes. Sawbill Campground for overnight before or after. Lots of trip options: Easy: Sawbill to Beth Lake or Sawbill Lake to Burnt Lake Medium Difficulty: Sawbill to Cherokee Lake (Day trip to Frost Lake or Long Island Lake) or Sawbill to Grace Lake Difficult: Sawbill to Wine Lake Easy: Baker Lake to Jack Lake Medium: Baker Lake to South Temperance Easy: Kawishiwi to Polly Lake (Day trip to Koma or Malberg Lakes.) |

08/18/2022 05:14PM Planning a trip with my husband (who has never been to BWCA!) Sep 20-22 to hopefully catch some beautiful fall foliage! Hoping for recommendations on which lake to go and where to lodge. Here are some considerations for our short trip: - Want easy access to canoe rental and getting on the lake - Easy portaging - We'd like to lodge at BWCA, but if lodging is limited and the lake is worth it, we'd be willing to grab a hotel in Ely - It would be nice to have limited traffic on lake (including no motor boats) - Plan to fish, but prioritize scenery over fishing success - my husband may disagree ;) Thank you! |
