Woman of the Boundary Waters: Canoeing, Guiding, Mushing, and Surviving
by Justine Kerfoot
The Boundary Waters region of Minnesota is a vast wilderness of quiet beauty, visited and loved by many, but home to only a rugged few. Kerfoot has paddled all the lakes and streams in this border country, and she knew them well. Her lyrical descriptions of wildlife and seasonal environments express the deep reverence for nature.
Justine Kerfoot was born in 1906 in Barrington, Illinois and was owner and operator of the Gunflint Lodge for 51 years.
