BWCA
![Page 29: Scouting preso 2013](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022052505/5562ec46d8b42ab47d8b50b4/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)

What is the Boundary Waters Canoe Area ?
• 1,000,000+ acres set aside in 1978 by an act of congress
• Restricted logging, mining, and most motorized access
• A pristine, yet rugged wilderness
• The lakes are cut from granite and surrounded in old pine growth
![Page 31: Scouting preso 2013](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022052505/5562ec46d8b42ab47d8b50b4/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
![Page 32: Scouting preso 2013](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022052505/5562ec46d8b42ab47d8b50b4/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Why Plan Now?
1. We want to ensure that a permit for the date we desire to enter on and for the entry point you wish to embark from is available.
2. We want to make sure we are well prepared with proper gear, know-how, and plan to enter the wilderness.
3. We want to physically prepare. A boat has a max weight of 440 pounds. We will paddle for up to 8 hours on some days, especially if we are paddling into current, or wind.
4. We have to be strong enough to portage, a lot!

Concerns
• Weather: Rain, snow and hot sun is possible on any given day in June.
• Black Flies: Memorial Day to the third week of June.
• Mosquitos: Mid-June to the later part of July. They are very easy to repel.
• Fishing: Best in June, degrades but still good in July.

Characteristics of a BWCA trip
• Travel to a different campsite, everyday
• Carry dry food but catch your protein.
• Swim in, bath in and drink the lake water…one of only a few places left on Earth where this is OK.
• Read the “lay of the land” in order to navigate. No roads, signs or man made landmarks to guide you.
