About this map

The international boundary between the Canada United States of America runs through the narrow shipping lanes of the St. Marys River system, separating the Michigan mainland from the sprawling topography of Sugar Island and Neebish Island. The small settlement of Homestead anchors the northwestern edge of the map, connected by rural corridors like S Homestead Rd. Further south, the landscape is defined by the intricate waterways of the East Neebish Channel and Munuscong Channel, which wrap around landforms like Rains Island and Mirre Point.

Tracing the early-21st-century landscape reveals the quiet character of these islands, where the Saint Luke's On the Trail Cem sits near the river's edge. The terrain varies from the low-lying wetlands of Coulters Creek to the modest rise of Moon Hill, reflecting a region shaped by its maritime proximity and its role as a borderland. Named points such as Harwood Point and Johnson Point mark the transition between the open water and the forested interiors of the islands.
