Hey folks I am headed to Wells BC in August to do the Bowron Lakes circuit with my wife and teenage boys.
This thread is no really hunting related, but I figure hunters on here would be able to answer my question.
Besides Becker's lodge, are there any other outfitters in the Wells area who rent canoes? I was there years ago,
and I believe there were a few options on renting canoes. I had my own at the time. Google searches only seem
to bring up Becker's. I am ok with Becker's but do they have a monopoly now? Are they any other outfitters
that I can price compare? Thanks, Keith

I did the circuit on the Sept long weekend in 2012. One thing we did not plan to rent but ended up renting was the waterproof back packs. They are high quality bags and keep your stuff dry if it rains. I highly recomend them. They come in 3 or 4 sizes depending on how much you want to carry. Also your gear does get weighed before you begin the adventure so leave heavy things behind.
