Timber Cruisin With No Guide Up Lake Superior
A band of timber cruisers recalls a northern expedition from Duluth to Lac Boule, resisting Indian guides, choosing risk over security, and battling rapids near Slanlay and Lonely Lake. They describe maps, improvisations, camp finding moss, and the wild North with rough humor and drifting awe.

Voyage of the River Quest and Indian Encounter
In a rugged river expedition the narrator and Porthos travel by canoe through rapid waters. They encounter an Indian guide and a stern English observer, discuss route choices and dangers, and camp beside a cedar boat after fending off sudden noises and a frying pan mystery. The journey features foggy dawns, camp debates, and warnings about treacherous waters as they press toward a distant portage.
