Outer Island, the northernmost point of the Apostle Islands National Lakeshore, is documented here in a modern survey of its terrestrial and aquatic boundaries. Surrounded by the cold depths of Lake Superior, the land is traversed by the North-South Trl and the shorter Lullabye Trl near the northeastern shore. These pathways imply the island's use for low-impact recreation and conservation management within the broader Apostle Islands chain. The eastern coastline is punctuated by Austad Bay, while the northern waters are marked by the Outer Island Shoal, indicating the submerged hazards that define the maritime navigation of this isolated landmass.
