The Ely Summer and Winter Times, first published in 1996, is a digest-size publication distributed FREE to Ely area visitors, residents, and enthusiasts online and through local businesses. It has a map, calendar of events, restaurant guide, and articles about the area’s history, wildlife, attractions, and recreational opportunities.
Distributed for free at most Ely locations and with a promise of only 1/3rd advertising space, the Times is a great place for businesses and non-profits to get their message to just about everybody at a very reasonable rate.
The Boundary Waters & Quetico Calendar gives you twelve outstanding photographs to remind you of where you’ve spent precious, perhaps even life-changing, moments. Enjoy the scenes of familiar places that await your return and the wildlife, sunsets, shorelines, and campsites that you look forward to seeing again soon.
When our most enthusiastic customers get in touch, they always comment on the sidebars. These contain a variety of topics from human and natural history to camping tips and even recipes, with some occasional philosophical rants about wilderness and getting kids outdoors. Moon phases, hunting and fishing seasons, emergency contacts, permit information, holidays and local events are included. With all that we try to leave enough room for you to add your appointments and special events on each date.
