How to Leave a Legacy for the Boundary Waters

Oct 16, 2025

The Boundary Waters is a place unlike any other – a vast, wild landscape that has inspired generations of paddlers, campers, and wilderness defenders. Many of us feel a deep responsibility to ensure this special place is protected, not only for ourselves but also for the generations that come after us.

One of the most meaningful ways you can help safeguard the Boundary Waters for the future is through estate planning.
