Browsing Bliss Awaits You

It appears you're using Internet Explorer or an early version of Edge, which is a bit like watching a black-and-white TV with "rabbit ears." You're missing symmetry, joy and actual knowledge — not only here on my website but across the internet. I suggest you upgrade to Chrome or Firefox. You’ll discover a lot more nature, maybe even actual rabbit ears.

Naked in the Lake: A Superior Adventure

Along the way you’ll discover Ojibwa legends and pictographs, thick fog and big waves, rare wildlife and some the most dramatic territory on the continent. Where else can you drink straight from the lake as you swim? This is another in Bryan and Ruth’s popular “Naked in …” series specifically created for North Branch Nature Center's Naturalist Journeys series »
