Angleworm - Hegman Lakes Ski Route

About this campground

This is wilderness skiing within the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness.  It is not groomed, so skiers need to be familiar with backcountry skiing and be able to navigate with map and compass.  A GPS is a good backup, but does not substitute for map, compass, and navigational skills.  Skiers need to be prepared for emergencies and should be aware that cell phone coverage is minimal to non-existent within most of the BWCAW. Skiers will be using both summer portage trails and frozen lakes to navigate this route.  Be aware of ice thickness and safety when skiing  on lakes. There is parking available off the Echo Trail.
