1999 Map of Crane Lake

USGS Topo · Published 2003

About this map

Sand Point Lake and the interconnected waters of the Voyageurs National Park anchor this northern Minnesota landscape, where the international border with Canada threads through narrow channels and open bays. The map documents the settlement at Crane Lake, featuring the Crane Lake Chapel and a vital Port of Entry Customs facility, indicating the area's importance as a gateway for water-based travel and trade. The complex hydrography includes King Williams Narrows and the Little Vermilion Lake, illustrating a transition from the protected waters of the Superior National Forest to the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness. Numerous islands like Indian Island and Baylis Island dot the lake surfaces, while the presence of a Boat Ramp and multiple Campgrounds reflects the region's long-standing reliance on seasonal navigation and wilderness recreation.
