About this map

The international border between the United States and Canada cuts diagonally across the Saint Marys River in this maritime stretch of Chippewa County. This area represents a critical junction of northern waterways where the Munuscong Channel flows past the southern tip of Neebish Island. Along the eastern shore of the mainland, the landscape is defined by low-lying wetlands and significant points of land including Rocky Point and Point aux Frenes.

Tracing the local roads like S Parr Rd and Point Aux Frenes Rd reveals a landscape primarily dedicated to conservation and seasonal residences. Of particular note for genealogists and local historians is the Johnston Family Cem located at the northern edge of the map, providing a tangible link to the early families who settled this rugged riverfront territory. The interior is drained by the Two Tree River, which meanders through the forest toward the wide expanse of the St. Marys.
