Some people are born knowing how to canoe the BWCA.
Others buy this book.

Outfitters on the Gunflint Trail have a pretty good handle on how to paddle through the million-acre Boundary Waters. The rest of us, well, we need a manual.

Becoming A Boundary Waters Family is your how-to guide for camping and canoeing the BWCAW.

It’s filled with tips for everything you need to bring and want to know:

  • picking the right canoe for you and your family
  • a crash course in camp clothing
  • what to drink when you’re surrounded by water
  • bird identification
  • helpful hints for traveling with kids
  • fish finding
  • finding out where you are
  • all about bears
  • campfire magic
  • packing out what you pack in
  • moose and much, much more!

Not only can you order a copy of this helpful how-to guide, your Gunflint outfitters offer entire series of seminars and materials to help you and your kids feel even more comfortable in the woods.
