pageCREDITS: The juniper communis (White Cedar) and viriginiana (Red Cedar) photos are from the
University of Wisconsin (Madison) botany gopher. The large Red Cedar overlooking Wisconsin
farmland was photographed by Dr. Virginia Kline, of the Wisconsin Arboretum (Madison). The
photo of Manido Giizhigance was taken by Richard Longseth, scanned from a tourist info book
called Minnesota Back Roads (American Geographic Publishing, c. 1990) distributed by the state
of Minnesota to foster tourism. It is of course ID'ed there as "the witch tree" and nothing is said
about how tourists disturb and vandalize it, or the opposition of the Grand Portage Tribe to such
tourist visits and publicity, or how all local Ojibwe people hate the name (witch tree) the
hucksters have tagged it with.
