About this map

Lake Huron surrounds this island-heavy landscape at the international border between Michigan and Ontario. The northern shore of Drummond Island defines the lower portion of the map, where a network of local routes like S Sturgeon Bay Rd and Willoughby Rd provide access to the waterfront at Sturgeon Bay and Rabbit Bay. This 2017 survey details the complex archipelago within Potagannissing Bay, ranging from the larger Macomb Island and Harbor Island to smaller outcrops like Wreck Island and Gull Island.

Aviation and maritime features are prominent, with the Drummond Island Airport situated on the eastern edge of the landmass. The map carefully tracks underwater hazards and coastal navigation points, including Cheney Shoal and the expansive Burnt Island Reef. Inland, the terrain is dotted with small water bodies such as Stringham Lake, while the coastline is marked by family-named points and coves including Sims Point and Sturgeon Point.
