Quetico wildfires move closer to BWCA border

Several wildfires in Ontario's Quetico Provincial Park border the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness. A large section of the wilderness area, including portages and campsites, has been closed since mid-July.

West Zone Superior fires consist of the Bear Creek, Phantom Creek, Sundial South, Ima, Slowfoot, and Fourtown Fires scattered in and around the BWCAW.
