2014 Map of Lime Island

About this map

De Tour Village anchors the southern landscape of this 2014 survey, situated at the critical junction where Lake Huron meets the De Tour Passage. This maritime geography is defined by an intricate network of islands and reefs along the international border between Michigan and Ontario. To the north, the larger landmass of Lime Island is surrounded by smaller outcroppings like Little Lime Island and Hart Island. The inland terrain near the coast features Caribou Lake and is served by local routes such as E N Caribou Lake Rd and S Fountain Farm Rd. Local heritage is marked by the presence of Sacred Heart Cem near the shoreline of Potagannissing Bay. The map provides a clear view of the water-dependent settlement patterns at the tip of the St. Marys River system, illustrating how navigational hazards like Watson Reefs and Pipe Island Shoal shape the local shipping lanes.
