I recently went canoeing up in the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness in the north woods of Minnesota. I grew up in California and I’d never heard of this area before. Several people I talked to about it hadn’t heard of it either.\u00a0Frankly, I’m not sure why everyone isn’t aware of this amazing part of our country.<\/p>\n

According to Wikipedia, the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness (BWCA) is a 1,090,000-acre wilderness area within the Superior National Forest in northeastern Minnesota under the administration of the U.S. Forest Service. It\u00a0extends along 150 miles of the U.S.\/Canada border in Minnesota.<\/p>\n

On the Canadian side, the area is called\u00a0Quetico Provincial Park, which is larger than the US side at 1,180,000 acres. These large wilderness parks are often collectively referred to as the Boundary Waters or the Quetico-Superier Country, all renowned for its excellent canoeing and fishing.<\/p>\n

On the US side, almost 20% of the area is water, the rest is forest and is the largest remaining area of uncut forest in the eastern portion of the United States. Within the borders of the area on the US side are over 1,100 lakes and hundreds of miles of rivers and streams.<\/p>\n
