overthehill	04/14/2019 03:16PM Call Zupp or Anderson and find out for sure. Either will work with you.
jdddl8	04/14/2019 02:22PM I guess I should have researched the tow options more before I posted. I have been on LLC struggling to canoe at least five or six times but all I knew about the tow boats was that they sped by me. My plan was to use CC to reach the ranger station and then get towed which I thought was by the natives from the res. Can I get towed by the US outfitters from the ranger station? I never even considered that as an option. Anyway I guess I need to research this further. Do all US outfitters have to stop at the ranger station before completing the tow?
snakecharmer	04/13/2019 08:16AM bwcadan: "The last time I went through one of the mentioned outfitters for a tow, the cost was per person. Not included was the extra per each canoe. I will be interested to know what a shared cost would be. Let us know how this worked out. " This was the case when my brother and I used one of the mentioned outfitters two years ago. Per person and then an extra fee per private canoe.

old_salt	04/12/2019 10:29PM Anderson will also do matchups.
walllee	04/11/2019 04:07PM With that much lead time, and date flexibility your tow operator should be able to match you up with another group with no problem. I use Zups , give Kathy my date range and she’s always been able to match me up.
jdddl8	04/11/2019 12:39PM I am planning on getting a tow from LLC to the Black Robe portage on one of the days from August 19 to 22. Since I am solo I would like to share the cost. I have not finalized my exact day so if anyone else would like to reduce their tow cost please email me at john.larway@gmail.com. I could even do the week before if that works for someone.
