For those that haven’t visited the site before, Thunder Bay is approximately 45 minutes north of Grand Portage, MN.  Fort William is a reconstructed 1815 Northwest Company fur trade post, on the banks of the Kaministiquia river.  The site features a large number of period buildings, out buildings, working farm and trade shops.

The site provides sleeping accommodations for approximately 80 participants (lower bunks, dorm style), but the dorms are located on an upper storey (stairs only).  Limited sleeping accommodations are available on the main floor – registration form will include questions on accessibility requirements to ensure main floor space is prioritized for those in need.  Camping space is also available for those who prefer to tent, and parking is available nearby for those who have an RV (no power/water).
