2019 Map of Angle Inlet SW OE N

About this map

The international boundary between Canada and the USA defines the southern portion of this landscape, cutting across the watery transition from the Northwest Angle Inlet to the expansive Lake of the Woods. This 2019 survey documents a unique geographical curiosity where American territory exists north of the 49th parallel, dominated by the hydrology of Shoal Lake and the winding course of Powawassan Creek. The terrain is largely defined by its intricate shoreline and northern wetlands, reflecting the complex water systems that dictate the border's path. While the southern portion of the map traces the United States boundary line through t168n r35w, the vast majority of the sheet covers the remote northern reaches of the Kenora District, where Powawassan Creek meanders toward the larger lake system.
