Boundary Waters Canoe Expedition
Wilderness, would you dare?
The Boundary Waters is one of National Geographic Traveler magazine's "50 Places of a Lifetime," their list of the world's "must-see" destinations.
Trip Description
The BWCAW is a grand and classic adventure trip through some of the most beautiful country you'll find anywhere. There's just nowhere else like it in the world. Simply, it's a paddler's dream come true.
This 7 days Backcountry in the BWCAW is an All-Inclusive Outfitted expedition by the hand of an Experienced Professional Canoe Guide. TME will take you through some of the most beautiful and breathtaking scenery you have ever experienced as you make your way through a small portion of the 1 million acres of Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness. The group will be able to navigate through the many lakes and channels. Most canoeists do at least some portaging, which involves paddling to a trail that leads to another lake, carrying the gear and canoes across the trail, then paddling into the next lake. This is the way to get deep into the canoe country. The canoe trip route will be chosen based on the group skill level, physical ability, scenery, and length of the trip.
Level: Moderate - Strenuous
