Community Conversations – Alta McQuatters
In this very special edition of Community Conversations on WTIP, we talk with life-long Lutsen resident and Grand Portage Band Member Alta McQuatters.
The daughter of Ervine and Ruth Parent, Alta introduces us to her family’s Shingibiss and Geezhik relatives, as well her Parent and Allard ancestors.
A local historian and archiver of history, Alta shares the story of White Sky Rock, the first school at Lutsen, some early history of Arrowhead Electric Co. and talks frankly about what it was like growing up on the North Shore.
