2019 Map of McCargoe Cove

About this map

Isle Royale National Park dominates this maritime survey, illustrating the isolated character of Michigan’s northernmost wilderness at the end of the 2010s. The map delineates the international border through the cold waters of Lake Superior, where the United States and Canada meet along a series of surveyed coordinates. This specific section focuses on the northeastern reaches of Isle Royale, including the interior waters of Amygdaloid Lake. The presence of the Public Land Survey System grids, such as t67n r34w and t66n r34w, provides a structural framework for a landscape otherwise defined by rocky shorelines and protected parkland. This document captures the intersection of federal conservation and international boundary management in a remote Great Lakes environment.
