Also known as Return of the Voyageurs

A French brigade of four canoes, paddled by voyageurs and loaded with baled furs, glides along Crooked Lake, a body of water between Basswood Lake and Lac La Croix in the Minnesota-Ontario border country. Above the brigade tower the cliffs of Picture Rock, which bear faint pictographs made by the area's early Indian inhabitants.
