A young man feeling the pressure decides to go over the best known portage in Northern Wisconsin in 1855. From traveling in Lake Superior in large lake canoes to up the Brule River and over the portage to the Saint Croix River, he and his companion meet their future head on. Join William and imagine yourself trying to accomplish the journey with him and his companion. Could you take this journey today as he did?
