06/06/2017 04:42PM I finished up there two weeks ago and it had been pretty rainy and cold. I don't think there has been a lot of high temps and winds since which could dry things out, but you can always call the local ranger station and ask them their current fire risk rating. I doubt we are anywhere near a ban anywhere in the BWCA right now. |
