Summer in Minnesota is the perfect time for getting out and enjoying the great outdoors, but if you were planning to camp in Minnesota s Boundary Waters, it might be best to rethink those plans right now.
I ve never been to the vast wilderness that is the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness (BWCAW) in Lake County, in northern Minnesota (about 5 hours northeast of Rochester.) It s definitely on my Minnesota Bucket List, though except perhaps not this year. At least, not right now, anyway.

âThey re about 20 miles north of Ely,â Koele said. âThe fires are in Quetico Provincial Park. We re in assessment for any fires that reach the border. We are in communication with Ontario. We do have a great relationship right now, but the biggest challenge is that we are in a national preparedness level five and the resources are thin.â
