With her usual spirit of adventure, attention to detail, and refusal to accept conventional thoughts, Katharine Parsons set out to do what seemed impossible for a young woman living in 1930s Manhattan.

Never operated as a club or commercial venture, Boland Brook Camp has remained a small family fishing camp.
