BWCAW Entry Points


The Entry Points now open in a separate window. The MNDNR website allows you to zoom in and zoom out between three sizes. It is possible to lose the entry point when you zoom. However, the maps are interactive - meaning, just click on an area of the map and it will center that area (generally) on the map. Please report any incorrect or discontinued entry points here
