Title: Re: Quetico: Near to Nature,s Heart

The name Quetico evidently doesn't neatly match any Ojibwa names according to the people at Lac La Croix. It is similar to a word meaning 'benovolent spirit' but also close to another word that indicates it is best to canoe close to the shore. I couldn't find any evidence of a company called the Quebec Timber Company logging in the Quetico area.
