     The U.S. Forest Service is in charge of all permits for canoe trips on the U.S. side of the border. There is a quota on the number of permits available each day for each of the entry points on the U.S. side, and when it has been filled, a different entry point must be selected.
     Reservations should be make as far in advance as possible. For entering Canada's Quetico Park, try to make your reservation before December 28.  For the U.S. side of the BWCA, make your reservations as soon as you can, preferably in February, March, or April.

     Permits are limited to 9 people per party. If you have a larger group, we will need the name, address, and phone number of a leader of each group of nine or less, and an alternate leader for each group.
     We accept VISA or MasterCard. Deposits are refundable, less $50, if we get written notice of your cancellation at least 30 days before your trip is to start.
