Title: Splitting a crew for a few days
Post by Jackfish on Jul 13^th, 2009 at 4:05am

I go to Q with a group who enjoys being together very much. However, the others prefer to base camp (and I don't mind it) but I also like to travel a bit.

Here's my question: Could we be allowed to enter as one group at the appropriate entry point, then my son and I would split for a few days, make a loop and meet up with the others on the base camp lake?

My guess is this scenario would not be allowed. To do so would require two permits.

The same rule applies within the BWCAW: two campsites require two permits ..... even for just one night (as in "initiations").
