For over a quarter century we
have been one of the leading
Boundary Waters canoe trip outfitters for high adventure
wilderness experiences into the
BWCA in
Minnesota &
Quetico Provincial Park in Ontario, Canada. Our BWCA canoe trips
feature fishing, camping, and fly in adventures from Ely Minnesota. Our BWCA canoe trips are designed for
groups of friends, business partners or clients, honeymooners, families, and
Boy Scout Troops or other youth groups. Our canoe trip parties explore
the Boundary Waters for wildlife and
see fantastic scenery of lakes, rivers & streams, waterfalls and forests.
The
pristine territory of Ely Minnesota, surrounded by these
Boundary Waters border lakes, has been preserved through the
cooperative efforts of the US & Canadian Federal governments,
along with Ontario Provincial & Minnesota State governments and
outfitters as they respectively administer the Boundary Waters
Canoe Area Wilderness (BWCA) and Quetico Provincial Park. The portages,
paths winding between lakes, once used by the French trappers
and voyageurs of the Hudson's Bay Company, remain unchanged over
centuries of use. Canoe trip
fishing in the Boundary Waters
centers around
smallmouth bass,
northern pike, and
walleye.
Within the Boundary Waters Canoe Area (BWCA) Wilderness the ageless
sights and sounds and smells of emerald pine forests and sapphire blue lakes
are now awaiting your arrival here in the BWCA Wilderness. We are looking forward to assisting your canoe trip with our knowledge of the
area, our top quality equipment, and convenient BWCA outfitters services.
