2022 Map of Garden Island West

About this map

Garden Island and the isolated shorelines of Lake of the Woods define this 2022 survey of a remote maritime borderland in Minnesota. The map details the physical geography of the Northwest Angle region, where the water gives way to low-lying wetlands and points of land such as Driftwood Point and Rooty Point. This area remains largely defined by its natural hydrology and the Public Land Survey System grids, with boundaries like t167n r34w and t166n r33w marking the administrative divisions of this northern wilderness. The sparse nomenclature reflects the undisturbed character of the island and the surrounding waters, offering a clear record of the coastline and marshy interior at the start of the 2020s.
