Boundary Waters Map with Entry Points
The Boundary Waters BWCA map illustrates where River Point Outfitting Co. “Ely Outfitters™” is located in reference to the Ely area entry points into the Boundary Waters Canoe Area of northern Minnesota.
The Boundary Waters map shows the Boundary Waters (BWCAW) and its relationship to Canada’s Quetico Provincial Park. Quetico Park is shown in the top of the map in yellow.
River Point’s private lakefront peninsula is shown in the header image of this page with River Point in the foreground and the South Kawishiwi River on the east and west sides of the property. Off the point to the south is beautiful 20 mile-long Birch Lake, which lies outside of the protected BWCA.

River Point Outfitting Co. services all entry points into the 1.1 million acre Boundary Waters Canoe Area within the northern third of the Superior National Forest in Minnesota.
