The Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness needs permanent protection. For all. Forever.
The Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness in northeastern Minnesota is a 1.1 million-acre Wilderness nestled along the border of Canada. A truly unique landscape, this canoe country boasts vast amounts of interconnected freshwater in the form of lakes, rivers, streams, and wetlands – the Superior National Forest, which surrounds and encompasses the Boundary Waters, contains over 20% of the freshwater in our entire National Forest System.

The Boundary Waters is both America’s favorite Wilderness, and it’s most threatened.
Join Save the Boundary Waters in the movement to protect this Wilderness from toxic copper mining.
All are welcome, and all voices are needed to save our country’s sacred, wild spaces – for everyone, forever.
Speak loudly for this quiet place.
