Marshall Helmberger REGIONAL The U.S. Forest Service has closed a significant portion of the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness due to the threat posed by a half dozen wildfires burning in Quetico Provincial Park, just north of the border. The closed area includes all of the northwestern-most portion of the wilderness area, stretching from just west of Basswood Lake, near Ely, west to Crane Lake. According to Forest Service officials, those fires have become more active in recent days and have the potential to spread to the U.S. side of the border, where they could pose a danger to canoeists in the area as well as potential rescuers. The closure includes all lakes, entry points, portages, and campsites located within the closed area.
