The USDA Forest Service recently released information regarding campsite closures and entry point restrictions for 2012. While the vast majority of the BWCA was not impacted, these changes will have major effects for those who use the area which was impacted by the Pagami Creek Fire. I have camped in the impacted area about twice per year for the past 5 years, and I will share my opinion regarding the impact of the fire and resulting restrictions during the next several weeks. Other than the burned area, I'm sure that a ripple effect will be felt in the area around fire perimeter. Here is a link to information released by the Forest Service:
