1963 Map of Coleman Island

USGS Topo · Published 1964

About this map

Lac La Croix dominates this intricate 1963 boundary survey, where the international border between the United States and Canada weaves through a complex network of islands and interconnected waterways. The sheet captures the remote character of the Superior National Forest and Quetico Provincial Park before the widespread modernization of wilderness management. The presence of the Neguaguon Lake Indian Reserve 25D along the Maligne River highlights the long-standing indigenous geography of this borderland region. Map details show a landscape of rocky points and numerous bays, including the evocatively named Lady Boot Bay and Never Fail Bay. Portages and rapids, such as Pocket Creek Rapids, indicate the historic travel routes through Coleman Island and out toward Ge-Be-On-E-Quet Lake, documenting the area just as it was being established as a premier wilderness destination.
