One Summer Up North
by John Owens
It’s a place of wonder: the wilderness on the Minnesota—Canada border. Travel its vast distances, canoe its streams and glacial lakes, take shelter from the rain, camp in its vaulting forests as stars embroider the darkening sky. Is this your first visit? Or is it already your favorite destination? Come along—join a family of three as their journey unfolds, picture by picture, marking the changing light as the day passes, the stillness before the gathering storm, the shining waters everywhere, rushing here, quietly pooling there, beckoning us ever onward into nature’s infinite wilderness one summer up north.
