This Land
Across North America, the creation of wilderness areas and national parks led to the forced displacement of indigenous peoples. The Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness and Quetico Provincial Park are no different.
Take the time to learn about the strong and vibrant Native communities that live in the area around Lake Superior, called Gichigami in the Ojibwe language.
