It's summer! Join BWAC and friends at the Wabun Picnic Area (Minnehaha Falls area)—no work gloves or clearing tools needed. Well... maybe bug spray. It's July, after all.

We'll be at the park for our annual summer gathering and picnic on Wednesday, July 15th, from 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM. All are welcome!

The "Done @ 2 crew" just wrapped up an incredible (and sweaty!) 5-day volunteer trip clearing the Sioux-Hustler Trail!

Four dedicated volunteers put in a massive 432 total service hours, tackling everything from heavy brush to intense humidity to keep our trails beautiful and accessible.

475 hours of hard work, muddy boots, and unforgettable views!

Huge congratulations to Crew 8 for crushing Trip #8! Six incredible volunteers stepped up to clear and maintain our backcountry trails, pushing through everything from chilly rain to mid-80s heat.

Our 4-person volunteer crew (“To The Left”) just wrapped up a 5-day backcountry mission to clear the trails around Mirror Lake, and they crushed it! From fighting headwinds to evading aggressive bees, this crew put in 427 total hours of volunteer service to keep the wilderness accessible.

Our incredible 6-person volunteer crew just wrapped up Trip #5, clocking in a massive 644 total volunteer service hours to help restore the Powwow Trail!

Crew Leaders Kait and Katie braved chilly spring weather (highs of 40F, light flurries, and freezing rain) to crush some major maintenance goals between the rapids and the Devils Cascade campsite.

Our 2nd BWAC crew of the season returned from a productive weekend on the Sioux Hustler Trail. Calling themselves "The Geezers plus 2," this squad of seven volunteers proved that dedication and hard work go a long way in preserving our wilderness trails.

Our first mission of 2026 is officially in the books! A crew of 6 dedicated volunteers from the Boundary Waters Advisory Committee - BWAC just wrapped up 4 days of grit, grime, and heavy lifting on the Eagle Mt. and Brule Lake trails.

Big thanks, Eric, for everything you bring to the Boundary Waters trails! Having a seasoned crew leader like you at the helm makes all the difference, both for the crew and for the wild places we protect. Your leadership is deeply appreciated!
