Hard to say. But she was a tough old bird. Back in the day I logged summers during high school and she and her older sister, both of whom were in the area at the "cabin" for the summer, decided to spend a day peeling poplar pulpwood for me. Great having the company AND the help.
We never smoked grape vines (I doubt that they grow that far north) but our high school had numerous students from a local reservation and they introduced me to "indian tobacco" as they called it. Horrible is too mild a word for that stuff! Once, maybe twice, and that was enough for me.
