2016 Map of Oak Island

About this map

The international border between the United States of America and Canada cuts through the waters of Lake of the Woods in this detailed survey of the Angle Inlet region. The landscape is defined by a dense archipelago, centered on the significant landmass of Oak Island, which is separated from the mainland by the Sturgeon Channel. This area represents one of the northernmost points of the contiguous United States, where the settlement at Flag Island serves as a remote outpost near the maritime boundary. Smaller landforms including Marian Island, Blackbird Island, and Dawson Island are scattered throughout the basin, illustrating the complex shoreline and sheltered waters of Bobbies Bay. The map captures the specialized geography of this borderland, where navigation between points like Soldiers Point and Cases Point is dictated by the intricate network of islands and channels.
