What does anyone hear about the Prairie Portage ranger station being open to check in for entry into Quetico Park, via Basswood Lake?

Both Prairie Portage and Cache Bay are closed for the foreseeable future, that is, until the Covid pandemic is past and they allow Remote Area Border Crossing (RABC) permits again.

Lac La Croix is open for drive-in only from the north.

Your best bet for going to Quetico is to cross the border and pass through Customs at International Falls / Fort Frances, then drive to one of the northern entry points.

Southern access to Quetico is a frequent topic of discussion on the Quetico forum, and several members of that forum are keeping close watch on border issues. Consider adding the Quetico forum to your BWCA.com visits.
