Synopsis
A family canoe trip into the Border Country lakes of northern Minnesota and western Ontario is vividly depicted with woodblocks, sketches, and prose. Each page presents a new aspect of the Canoe Country's human and natural history, blended with a typical summer day of paddling, portaging and camping. Although the trip takes the reader into the wilderness of northern Minnesota, the camp activities, wildlife and scenery could be part of a wilderness trip in Maine, the Adirondacks, Algonquin Park, or many other places up north.
About the Author
Consie Powell and her family have explored streams and bogs, paddled through fog and rain showers, and basked in sunlight and moonlight on wave-washed granite shores. When she's not creating art, writing stories, baking bread, or goofing around with her New oundland dogs, she paddles her wooden canoe near her home on the edge of the Boundary Waters, sketchbook and binoculars always handy.
