About this map

The Saint Clair River defines this borderland landscape, where the international boundary between the United States and Canada weaves through a complex network of channels and islands. On the Michigan mainland, the city of Algonac serves as a hub, connected to the water by streets like St Clair River Dr and the Algonac-Walpole Island Fry. To the west, the river system branches into the North Channel and Middle Channel, creating the extensive wetlands of the Saint Clair Flats.

Harsens Island dominates the interior of the delta, featuring its own unique community infrastructure including the Harsens Island Airport and the Harsens Island Drain. Small settlements such as Sans Souci, Maple Leaf, and Pearl Beach line the waterfronts, illustrating a history of shoreline living. The presence of Oaklawn Cem and older place names like Pointe aux Tremble provide important points of reference for those researching the deep-seated maritime and residential history of St. Clair County.
