COMPLETE OUTFITTING FOR WILDERNESS TRIPS

Nor'Wester Canoe Outfitters provides complete and partial outfitting services from our base on Poplar Lake for wilderness canoe trips into the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness and Quetico Provincial Park. Many canoe country routes start and end at our central location on the Gunflint Trail.

We carry ultra-light Grumman, Alumacraft, and Wenonah Kevlar canoes. Top-of-the-line gear, the best ultra-lite food, and our personalized Boundary Waters Canoe Trips routing will provide peace of mind and an enjoyable canoeing experience. We offer customers quality lightweight equipment and good food at reasonable costs for their trip into canoe country. Nearly everyone can enjoy a BWCA wilderness canoe trip, regardless of their canoeing experience.

We have a lifetime of knowledge and experience to share with you about the canoe country. Carl Brandt, the owner of Nor'Wester, was born and raised on Poplar Lake and grew up canoeing and fishing the many lakes of the area. With 50 years of service to vacationers on the Gunflint Trail, we have developed a reputation for quality.

You will like our warm, personal service in helping you plan a trip that will be special and uniquely satisfying.
