This option works perfectly for the group that needs complete BWCA outfitting for most people in the party, but a few people need some gear or food.

All group members opting for a combination Complete and Partial Package enjoy vehicle parking and a Trip Routing and Orientation Session with friendly staff at River Point.
Note: Reserving a complete trip for specific members of the party combined with a partially outfitted trip for other members of the party must be determined at the time that the reservation was made and permit secured so that equipment can be allocated.
Transport: for groups made up of both Complete and Partial Outfitting, the Entry/Exit Point Transport Rate is based on the Partial Outfitting Transport Rate. Gas surcharge applies for BWCA outfitting.
