About this map

Mineral Center sits within a complex geography of protected lands and international borders in this 2019 survey. The settlement is anchored by the Mineral Center Cem, located near the junction of Old Hwy 61 and Co Rd 17. To the north, the terrain transitions into the Grand Portage National Monument, where the historic Grand Portage Trl follows the rugged corridor near the Pigeon River, which defines the boundary between the Canada United States of America.

The landscape is marked by prominent elevations such as Mt Sophie and Mt Maud, overlooking a network of inland waters including Speckled Trout Lake and Taylor Lake. The southern shoreline meets Lake Superior at Deronda Bay and Cannonball Bay, where distinctive landforms like Blueberry Island and Pancake Island sit just offshore. Much of the western portion of the map is managed as part of the Superior National Forest.
