THE BOUNDARY WATERS (BWCAW) and QUETICO PROVINCIAL PARK... The Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness, when combined with Canada's Quetico Provincial Park, just across the border, offers over two million acres of island-studded lakes and pine-covered forests that are accessible only to canoeists. The Boundary Waters Wilderness a place of intriguing interest and unparalleled beauty. Hundreds of miles of water routes wind through hundreds of lakes, past dozens of cascading waterfalls and around scores of rushing rapids. The only way to see it is from a canoe. Motorboats are prohibited from all of the interior lakes and from most of the fringe lakes. No one is permitted to live in the BWCA and no man-made structures are allowed there. Created by glaciers and protected by the Federal Government, the BWCAW is a very special, natural place.
