Why does food always taste better in the wilderness? For me I think slowing down and enjoying the simple pleasures in life are one of the greatest gifts that places like the Boundary Waters provides to wilderness wanders.
This maze of pristine lakes and rivers are precious and we all must speak loudly for quite places like the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness. The proposed sulfide-ore mines along the edge of the wilderness threaten our nation’s most popular wilderness and the economy of wilderness edge communities.
Federal agencies are conducting environmental review of the Boundary Waters watershed — a review meant to identify what makes the Boundary Waters so unique, so clean, and so sensitive to pollution. The review will ultimately help determine whether the Boundary Waters is the wrong place for America’s most toxic industry: sulfide-ore copper mining.

Please submit a comment to the Forest Service today. The Boundary Waters belongs to all of us and it is up to all of us to protect it.
