Leave Only Ripples: A Canoe Country Sketchbook Reimagined Book

In the heart of North America lies a land of lakes and forests, cliffs and clouds, mystery and wildness. Within this remote land, the historical home of Indigenous peoples, is the Quetico-Superior Wilderness. It includes the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness and Voyageurs National Park in the United States, and Quetico Provincial Park in Canada.

Come canoeing in this wilderness. Join a family as they travel by canoe and by foot through time and place. Touch the massive rocks that were once an ancient mountain range. Hike the portages long ago traversed by Indigenous people and pack-toting voyageurs. Camp in the forests where hearty lumberjacks once felled mighty white pines. Paddle the waters where turtles bask and otters frolic.

In Leave Only Ripples: A Canoe Country Sketchbook Reimagined, Consie Powell's journal notes, sketches, and hand-colored woodcuts transport you through Canoe Country with intimate glimpses of the wildlife, the shorelines, and the history.
