Item Description

Hoping for an up-close and personal look at the environment and history of the North Shore? Take a walk in the woods (or along the shore and beyond) with naturalist Chel Anderson. Co-author of the recently published North Shore: A Natural History of Minnesota's Superior Coast, Chel will take up to six folks on one of her favorite half-day treks along the North Shore to explore all things large and small along our beautiful and unique landscape. 

A resident of the North Shore since 1974, Chel has worked in various positions for the Superior National Forest, as a consulting ecologist and botanist in the private and public sectors, and with the Minnesota Biological Survey. In 2001, she received the Minnesota Chapter of the Nature Conservancy's Conservation Award for her "tireless efforts to inventory northeast Minnesota's plant communities, her work to support conservation action with sound science, and her extraordinary ability to inspire passion for wild things and wild places." 

North Shore is already a must-have for discovering more about this rich region. As writer, illustrator, and longtime North Shore resident Betsy Bowen reflects, "North Shore reads like a friendly and detailed journal that Great-great-great-great Grandmother Earth has been keeping from the very beginning. It tells the natural and cultural story of the North Shore: past, present, and future."
