2022 Map of Basswood Lake East

About this map

The international border between the United States of America and Canada runs through the heart of the Boundary Waters within the Superior National Forest. This aquatic landscape is defined by its complex network of interconnected waterways and storied islands, including Hausons Island, Washington Island, and the specifically named Indian Grave Island. The map details a primitive transportation network of portages and seasonal paths, such as the Indiana-Good Trl and the specialized Hula-Wind Bay Winter Trl. Prominent points of interest for navigation include United States Point and several distinct bays like Hoist Bay and Wind Bay. The interior is dotted with numerous smaller bodies of water, including Indiana Lake, Washte Lake, and Acorn Lake, illustrating the dense, lakeland character of northern Lake County.
