Grand Marais is reporting that the border closure will be at least through the end of July. Sorry ‘bout that.

I have no expectation that they will open the border before 2021.  Cases are going up in some states and people are starting to get relaxed and think it's over.  Big mistake IMO but Canada is watching us closely and I would imagine they have no interest in letting our people in.

There's decent lakes and routes in the BW.  Just look for the tough ones going in and you should get some solitude.  Adding a PMA area is not a bad idea either. Best of luck.
