“In collaboration with the Bois Forte Band of Chippewa, the non-profit Ely Folk School (EFS) and volunteer artists have completed a two-year project to create a map of the band’s traditional realm. This includes a 100-mile expanse of boreal forest from Lake Vermilion to Nett Lake and entails over 100 original names and meanings.”
