Hello - I'm hoping to do a 4-5 day trip and would love someone else to do it with. My dates are flexible between Aug 5 - 17. I'm a healthy 57 year old who loves adventurous travel and spending time in nature. I have a canoe at home (Madison WI), but this will be my first time in the BWCA. I'm excited!

If you don't already have a permit, it may be tough to secure one for that time of year. I just looked at recreation.gov and there were not many to be had.

You can also post in the Trip Partner Finder forum

People do trips for many reasons and in different styles. You and anyone you go with will need to match up experience, abilities, and expectations. You may want to include some relevant information to start.

I might be able to get away for another trip in early August. Feel free to message me with more info about your goals for the trip. I'm a 61 yo woman with plenty of BWCA experience, happy to show you some of the area.

Wow - A BWCA trip with shc, that is like the ultimate invite. Now that is an offer you should not refuse. You will learn more about canoe tripping in a week than you could ever learn anywhere else in a lifetime. I’m jealous haha. Go for it!
