About this map

Coleman Island and the sprawling waters of Lac La Croix dominate this borderlands landscape, where the intricate shoreline defines a labyrinth of bays and islands. The terrain is defined by a dense network of interconnected lakes, from the large expanse of Ge-Be-On-E-Quet Lake in the west to the secluded Kelsey Lake and Wabang Lake further east.

Waterways like Ge-Be-On-E-Quet Creek link these basins, reflecting a region where travel has historically been dictated by canoe and portage routes. Notable water features such as Lady Boot Bay, Never Fail Bay, and Twentyfive Island provide specific landmarks within the larger wilderness, while smaller bodies like Arch Lake, Profit Lake, and Yabut Lake fill the interior spaces between the larger lakelands. This survey offers a detailed view of the complex hydrography and island formations typical of the Ontario-Minnesota border region.
