Nipissing. Françoise Noël

In the Grand Trunk guide, Lake Nipissing and the French River, Mathew Hoover noted: “The southern branch, in making one of its numerous excursions deeper into the forest, describes a half-circle, in the course of which are five rapids, one mile apart. The Indians shoot all of them, but the tenderfoot, if wise, walks, around.”
