Naming after Bud Heinselman seems like a pretty decent idea.

A friend of mine was in there, and caught a 10 pound pike.
I think easiest way in, is from the West.

+1 I finished reading his book last winter. Lots of great info on the Quetico ecosystem. I was smarter after reading this. Boundary Waters Ecosystem "

That has to rank right up there with the best book of the BWCA history and especially the ecosystem.

Since Shan Walshe is already taken, I think Heinselman is the next best one. :)

I once thought I seen a little trail going that way from basswood,but looked closer and it looked like it petered out.

Always was curious about this lake?
Lake naming and chance for input

Many times going across Burke I looked on the map and said maybe I should check this lake out? Never did.

+1 The book is a masterpiece. I had the pleasure of meeting Dr Heinselman shortly before his death in the early 1990s. He LOVED the canoe country. I fully support naming a lake after him, and filled out the form online.
