Oak Island and its surrounding archipelago dominate this remote section of the international boundary between the United States and Canada. Situated within Lake of the Woods, the map illustrates a complex network of islands and waterways, including Blackbird Island, Marian Island, and Dawson Island. A noteworthy indicator of human presence is the Po located on the northern coast of Oak Island near Soldiers Point. The map provides a precise view of the maritime border, showing how the line between Minnesota and Canada threads through the open water and around landforms like Cases Point. To the south, isolated landmasses such as Techout Island and O'Dell Island emerge from the vast expanse of the lake, highlighting the unique geography of this borderland region.
