ALGONQUIN HOMELAND 

In the early 17th century, a handful of European 
adventurers penetrated this region and encountered 
members of the Algonquin people. The inhabitants 
welcomed the new arrivals, taught them about 
the wilderness, and served as their guides and 
middlemen in the fur trade. Algonquins still live 
here in their ancient homeland.
