About this map

The Rainy River forms a natural international boundary between Ontario and Minnesota on this orthophotomap, which combines traditional topographic data with aerial photography. The settlement of Pelland sits at the confluence where the Little Fork River meets the Rainy, a focal point for the regional timber and transport network. To the east, the small community of Isherwood and the Indian Reserve 10 occupy the riverfront, while the interior is defined by extensive wetlands and drainage patterns. Industrial and transportation history is visible in the corridor of the Canadian National railroad and the Old Railroad Grade further south. The map's photographic base reveals the distinctive land-clearing patterns in townships like Woodyatt and Roddick, contrasting the dense forest of the Little Forks area with active agricultural and resource extraction sites such as the local Gravel Pits.
