Has anyone used an outfitter to shuttle to a Stanton Bay drop off this summer? I'm headed up there mid-September and just wondered what the going rate was. We've used Moose from Morris Camp in the past, but I heard that he passed away and they might not be doing that service anymore.

I was picked up at Stanton in early July. It was $100 for Stanton pick up and $30 for us to get dropped back off at Nym. We were charged Canadian funds so a little less than $100 total. I used Doug Chapman, but he is cutting back so I think it is hit or miss if he can service you. Camp Quetico is a big operation and might be able to help.

I don't remember the cost but went in in May with Canoe Canada. It wasn't too expensive. I'll be going back with them in September, also SB.

$25 per man, $100 minimum seems to be the going rate for a one way shuttle to Stanton for most of the outfitters I’ve seen up there. We have a group of four going out of Stanton in mid-September as well. I think that area is getting busier all the time.

Got it. Thanks for the replies.

thin blue - we're headed in Sept 16 down to Sturgeon and then somewhere. How about you?

We will be seeing you in the Stanton Bay parking lot on the morning of the 16th then. Last time we went south through the B-Chain and basecamped on Fern Lake for a few nights. That’s a pretty scenic trip going around a lot of falls and rapids, with good fishing throughout. This time we will probably make our way down to McDougal.
