There are so many BWCA routes to choose from and all winter to dream over your BWCA maps. If you're anything like me then you're already planning your next BWCA route to paddle while you're still canoe camping in the Boundary Waters.
There's only so much time to paddle and portage when you're on a BWCA canoe trip and you can't make it to every wilderness lake in the area. Often I sit in the tent at night planning the next day and wishing I could take a side trip into a nearby lake. Unfortunately I don't have endless time to explore the Boundary Waters even though it is right in my backyard.
I often find myself in an internal debate. Do I want to see something new or would I rather go back to a BWCA route I've been on? Maybe a little bit of both is the perfect mix for a Boundary Waters trip. There's something comforting about the known but exciting about the unknown.
Good thing I have all winter long to pour over my BWCA maps and plan my first BWCA route of paddling season 2011.
