With some advanced planning, you can be sleeping in the Boundary Waters under your choice of a full moon or a new moon.
A full moon provides perfect light for night paddling and other nighttime activities. The moon rays cast shadows across the rocks, and the beams shimmer off the lakes. Such a setting may inspire you to howl at the moon, and listen for what howls back.
Plan a trip around a new moon to see a purely starlit sky with views of bright constellations and the spectacular Milky Way!

Dang nabbit, we are going to miss the full moon. Guess we will have to schedule another trip when our whole family can experience the beauty of the night light :)
