It's worth considering getting our reservations/deposits in early. No doubt these folks have taken quite a financial hit this year.

Data point: booked for late July/early August and VII was fully booked across our days of potential travel. Fortunately SHII was available, but this mirrors what has been said about BWCA bookings- significant increase from years past.
It's not Heaven, but they can see IR from there...

Are the ferries running with full capacity, or are they limited to some percentage of full capacity?
