Quetico Park & Boundary Waters
Portage Database

How does this sound to you?
Have you ever wanted to be able to click on any portage in canoe country, and read a description of it written by someone who has actually traveled it? How about being able to continue, by following links, from lake to lake, and discovering what you might encounter on a trip you're planning?

That's the idea.
Together we can create an incredibly valuable resource. Please view the database before you add a portage. (This database is updated manually.) Questions, comments and suggestions are always welcome and encouraged.

So...
If you're contemplating a new route or just want to see what others think - get out a map and follow along. The latest update (03/27/07) added 102 descriptions on 367 portages for a total of 1577 opinions on various BWCA / Quetico portages.

Lots of time and effort has gone into this resource. It follows the time honored tradition of paddlers helping paddlers. It's easy to return the favor by adding a portage or supporting it financially.

BTW - I love it when people string 'em together like this example...
