We finish the last 33 miles of our 65 mile adventure along the Canadian border in the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness (BWCA) in the Superior National Forest. This five day backpacking journey started with snow and cold before entering peak fall colors and great autumn weather. In this video we see the most scenic areas the trail and the BWCA. A group of four other guys joined me for this challenging trail on the Border Route Trail, one of northern Minnesota's most remote and beautiful trails.
