I LINKED to the old post so that YOU would read it and understand that the Norse evidence includes:

Waterway + the boat

Minnesota, (p. 3)

evidence:
- a series of harbors (Holand, 1928)
- mooring stones in every harbor.
- portages from Stinking Lake to Stake lake (for man carried loads.)
- a straight channel in Stinking Lake.
- ramps for boat lifts into Park Lake.
- relatively flat portage between Park Lake and Stake Lake.
- jetties in Stakke Lake,
- dam for Stakke Lake,
- Easy portage into Cromonant lake,
- mooring stone at "ten men dead" location.
- the straight cut to combine Pelican Lake flows.
- the man-modified Pelican River,
- rapid by-passes,
- the pull up-river at Fergus falls,
- going over the embankment and the continental divideat Fergus Falls,
- portage into water at a higher elevation at Pomme de Terr river,
- relatively flat portage between Pomme de Terre and Chippewa Rivers,
- harbor and mooring stone #7 for portage to Alexander Lake,
- , Alexander Lake to enable transport by water for 17 miles,

The OTHER STONE
Appendix 2
The Ten Mates Dead Episode
(A photo of a stone)
The photo shows a very special stone. A toutist on the VIKINGS WATERWAY TOUR followed up on rumors he heard playing golf. This was the grave marker stone of the TEN MATES DEAD episode of 1361.
The tourist was able to trace when and wherre the stone was found, who owned it since, and where it was moved. He found a newspaper story.
Years earlier a women, who was knowledgeable of the Kensington episode, had seen the story and traced the grave marker to the owners, who want to be anonymous. They took pictures for the woman, who shared this one.
So the VIKING WATERWAY file is important. The text and pictures describe the copper haulers route the Norse followed to settle North America for six centuries before the English invaded.
.
Appendix 2 shows a rare stone that marked the graves of the TEN MATES who were beaten to death in 1361.
