My Story
I'm passionate about the outdoors - an avid disc golfer and hiker, I know the importance of taking care of the space we occupy on Earth. The Boundary Waters are one of the few places virtually untouched and are at risk of being sold to the highest bidder in the name of greed. With your help, we can keep our planet a bit cleaner - and keep the Boundary Waters beautiful for years to come.
Description
The Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness (BWCAW) is an undeveloped 1.1 million-acre federal and state-recognized Wilderness Area. It is an expanse of lakes, rivers, and forests in the Superior National Forest, located along the Minnesota-Canada border, that has been protected by statute and international treaty for more than a century. This is the sixth most critical region in the lower 48 to protect for climate resiliency and contains 20% of all the freshwater in the entire National Forest System. The water in the Boundary Waters is so clean, you can dip your cup and drink straight from the lake.
Save the Boundary Waters is the locally-based, national campaign led by Northeastern Minnesotans for Wilderness based in Ely, Minnesota dedicated to permanently protecting America’s most beloved Wilderness Area – the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness.
