The Boundary Waters are a pristine network of lakes and rivers in Minnesota,just south of the Ontario border.A mere 160 kilometres from Thunder Bay.
The Boundary Waters is kind of a watery wilderness of interconnected waterways,separated by short streams and rivers that flow out into these large,island studded lakes.Sometimes you'll hear loons calling there.If you're lucky,you'll see a moose feeding in shallow waters.These waters are great for fishing,just lakes full of bass and walleye and pike and lake trout.
It's a pretty magical place where you would feel a lack of the sense of time.Once you get into the wilderness for a couple of days,all of a sudden the time on your wristwatch doesn't matter.
The beauty of the Boundary Waters must be protected and safeguarded for the generations to come
