"After
a day behind the dogs, the comforts of the Blue Heron
B&B-
two fireplaces, cozy couches, good books, delicious food, and a
wood-fueled sauna - met with musher approval."

Map and
Directions |
|
You can experience the "other"
BWCA... no portages & no mosquitoes
by dog sled, snow shoe or cross country ski
Cross Country Skiing
Cross Country Ski into the wilderness on un-groomed trails &
lakes,
user groomed trails & of course, miles of machined groomed
trails
just outside the wilderness of the BWCA
**********
Snow Shoeing
Or if you want to use alternate transportation how about Snow Shoeing
into the wilderness right outside our door. By using our complimentary
snow shoes or your own "shoes" on our wilderness trails & lakes
you
will see & hear a different BWCA wilderness. An
on-site snowshoe guide will help you set up a day of great snowshoeing!
Just mention in the reservation that you would like a guide.
*********
Dog Sledding
Each winter Blue Heron joins forces with several dogsled outfitters to
put you in the drivers seat of your own dog sled.
Imagine...
A Winter White World
where only the words you really need are "mush" and "whoa"
and fuel economy is measured in Milk-Bones per mile.
