Review:
“Classroom, cathedral or sweat lodge? David Ellingson’s 2021 paddle down the Mississippi’s Headwaters, from Bemidji to Aitkin, was challenged by high temperatures, low water, many mosquitoes, and all the beauty and grace of the natural world. The answer: the river is all three, and the experience is worth sharing.”
