TeamGB	06/28/2020 10:00PM Thanks! The answer seems to be obvious, but I forgot what is obvious and what is not: life is tough and too busy to recall relevant but remote details of the past.
TeamGB	06/28/2020 09:50PM Thanks, everybody! I appreciate your inputs! I ended up with Snowbank Lodge and Outfitters: they had what I wanted (SR Quetico canoes) with competitive prices. Communication was good as well.
smoke11	06/17/2020 10:58AM I second the guys at Lake one they do a great job.
Grandma L	06/16/2020 06:27PM We have used Kawishiwi Lodge (Lake One) several times. Good service. We also use their bunk house the night before we put in. Family owned. Nice folks!
inspector13	06/15/2020 07:10AM TeamGB: "Am I correct the parking at Lake One is open for public use and I could leave a car there waiting for my return from Snowbank exit (irrespective of an outfitter chosen)? Thanks!!" Yes.
billconner	06/15/2020 06:01AM Jackfish is right. I use Canoe Country Outfitters, who have a lot of SR Queticos, and are convenient to both One and Snowbank from their Moose Lake base.
Jackfish	06/14/2020 10:58PM Serious answer... they’re all good. One person’s favorite is another person’s not-so-favorite. Check out the outfitters listed as sponsors here on BWCA.com, pick one and go. You won’t be disappointed.
TeamGB	06/14/2020 09:07PM Hi guys, in 2011-2012 I made two good loops from Lake One to Snowbank. The latter one was quite a challenging single-portaging trip via Adams, Kekekabic, and Ensign closed to others because of the forest fires. This summer I plan to go with a mixed and weakened team for a very modest trip in the opposite direction, from Snowbank to One. And I forgot a lot of relevant details. Could you please recommend a good outfitter in Snowbank-One Lakes/Ely area to get good old SR Quetico 2-seater and 3-seater? I need nothing except canoes + standard extras. Should I stick to couple of them directly at the Lakes or those at Ely are just fine? Am I correct the parking at Lake One is open for public use and I could leave a car there waiting for my return from Snowbank exit (irrespective of an outfitter chosen)? Thanks!!
