2019 Map of Jackfish Lake

About this map

Superior National Forest encompasses the western portion of this 2019 survey, defining a landscape of interconnected waterways along the international boundary between Canada and the United States of America. This northern borderland is characterized by an intricate network of glacial lakes and rock formations, where the shoreline of Crooked Lake winds through Thursday Bay and Wednesday Bay. The interior terrain is dotted with smaller named basins, including Sauna Lake, Sash Lake, and the larger Jackfish Lake. Distinctive landmarks such as Picture Rock and Table Rock serve as navigational markers in this roadless wilderness. The map captures the complex hydrography of the region before the northern waters transition toward Circle Lake and Frolic Lake, illustrating the topographical continuity of the Boundary Waters area.
