Looking for a paddle partner 8/25 to 8/31. I am 67 and have been to BWCA many times, but never as a solo. My wife wants me to have a paddle partner and my regulars are taking a year off.

I do the BWCA the easiest way possible, a tow out of Crane Lake with zero or only one portage. It is strictly a fishing trip.

If you have an interest, respond to this post. We then can connect via email. I live in Louisville and find the BWCA to be one of my favorite places.

I am fine with solo canoes if you want to have your freedom and simply share the campsite and chores. Just being in the BWCA is what is most important.

If it doesn't pan out with RedLakePaddler & you're open to entry about Ely, I'm happy to help as a trip partner. Hope you have a great trip!

I did my first solo this past season at age 67.

Good luck finding a partner. Have a great trip!!
