Travel in the north woods was extremely difficult on foot since there were no roads and only a few trails, mainly used by war parties. By far the easiest way to get around was by canoe, using the many waterways and lakes in that area. Canoes were light enough to be carried (portaged) short distances from one waterway to another.
Ojibwe canoes were built of birch bark over a timber frame, with a very distinctive shaped prow and stern that was different to the shapes used by all other tribes. Natives always knelt in their canoes and could paddle, apparently without any effort, for many hundreds of miles. They would simply pull into the shore and make a temporary wigwam camp overnight, then start again early the next morning.

What was the ojibwa impact on the land?
Aboriginally, the Ojibwa occupied an extensive area north of Lakes Superior and Huron. A geographical Expansion beginning in the seventeenth century resulted in a four-part division of the Ojibwa. The four main groups are the Northern Ojibwa, or Saulteaux; the Plains Ojibwa, or Bungee; the Southeastern Ojibwa; and the Southwestern Chippewa. At the end of the eighteenth century the Northern Ojibwa were located on the Canadian Shield north of Lake Superior and south and west of Hudson and James bays; the Plains Ojibwa, in southern Saskatchewan and Manitoba; the Southeastern Ojibwa, on the lower peninsula of Michigan and adjacent areas of Ontario; and the Southwestern Chippewa, in northern Minnesota, extreme northern Wisconsin, and Ontario between Lake Superior and the Manitoba border. The Canadian Shield country is a flat land of meager soil and many lakes and swamps. The country of the Plains Ojibwa is an environment of rolling hills and forests dominated by oak, ash, and whitewood. The homeland of the Southeastern Ojibwa and the Southwestern Chippewa, also a country of rolling hills, includes marshy valleys, upland prairie, rivers and lakes, and forests of maple, birch, poplar, oak, and other deciduous species. Throughout the region, winters are long and cold and summers short and hot. Source: http://www.everyculture.com/North-America/Ojibwa-Orientation.html

William W Warren's "History of the Ojibway People" has long been recognized as a classic source on Ojibwe history and culture. The Ojibwa Indians (Native Peoples) by Bill Lund provides an overview of the past and present lives of the Ojibwa people. The Ojibwa Woman by Ruth Landes is a startlingly intimate glimpse into the lives of Ojibwa women. A bit of research is more likely to provide you with the information you need to create your own elaboration.
