Northwoods Vernacular Region as Defined by Hydrology and Sportsmen's Activities
Abstract
For many Americans the northern part of Wisconsin, Michigan, and Minnesota holds something extraordinarily special. Among the trees, lakes, rivers, and streams there is a common belief declaring this a unique region in our majestic country. Therefore, what constitutes the Northwoods as a unique region is what guided this research endeavor. As fishing and hunting are seen as a unique component of the Northwoods, we applied fishing and hunting license sales per county, and lakes with lodges and resorts on them to define the Northwood?s as a region.
