Boundary Waters Enthusiasts Enjoying Fall Colors on the Gunflint Trail

     Our canoe camping guests at Voyageur Canoe Outfitters are loving the fall colors and solitude of the BWCA. "This is my favorite time of the year to paddle!" exclaims one of our campers. Of course, there's plenty of reasons to love a fall canoe trip into the BWCAW and one of them is because it's even more of a wilderness with far fewer people out enjoying it.

     I love being the only person on a lake and not seeing anyone else for days. It's the time of the year when I go out to do a solo trip because I really enjoy the solitude. I like to swing in my hammock and sit by the lake without any bugs buzzing around. It's a great time to gaze at stars and sleep beneath them.  Some people get lonely or don't like being in the woods alone but I crave it.   And as I write about it I get even more anxious to get out canoe camping in the Boundary Waters.

     I suggest you come up and enjoy a fall canoe trip with Voyageur. It doesn't have to be solo and I guess you could come and enjoy the BWCA on day trips and stay in a cabin. Whatever you do, just don't miss this awesome time of the year in the Boundary Waters or Gunflint Trail.

Write and call your representatives who are lothe to challenge the power of the mining interests.Tell the Boundary Waters Journal to use the power of the pen and quit sitting on the sidelines printing pictures of what may never be in the future.
