If you are not quite sure whether backpacking or canoeing is your calling, this is the trip for you! Perfect for experienced or first-time campers.
 
The canoeing segment will cover the eastern portion of the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness—a rare destination for Widji groups. The backpacking segment will traverse part of the beautiful and rugged Superior Hiking trail.
 
Campers will spend approximately 6 nights canoeing and 6 nights backpacking. Emphasis will be placed on the fundamentals of both canoeing and backpacking, allowing experienced campers or novices the opportunity to enhance their skills in both disciplines.
