 North Shore Country. 



This section and the country adjacent to it is unique. It is 

 oftentimes mountainous. The vacationist who desires the high- 

 lands will find them here. There are many lakes all of them 

 teeming with fish of every variety. The gamiest trout in the 

 land are found here. The canoe trips are wonderful. There 

 are not so many accommodations but the camper can always 

 find what he wants. At Vermillion lake and on the Northern 

 boundary of the state there are a few stopping places. Ely is 

 the starting point for camping and canoe trips in all directions. 

 The Appalachian country cannot compare with this for canoe- 

 ing, camping and beautiful wilderness.

 Slater has good accommodations. Place reached by steam- 

 er from Duluth three times a week. Farmers along shore
