Have you checked the Minnesota DNR's "Data Deli" at
http://deli.dnr.state.mn.us/index.html? Also, try some Google searches
with terms link 'minnesota bwcaw gis data' or other permutations. I have
seen a map of the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness online someplace,
and if you can find that, you can contact the site owners for more info.
