Pigeon River defines the international boundary between Minnesota and Canada at the edge of Cook Co in this 2013 topographic survey. The landscape is dominated by the waterway's descent toward Lake Superior, featuring significant hydrological landmarks such as Pigeon Falls and Middle Falls. Near the coastline, the map delineates The Narrows, where the river mouth meets the expansive waters of the Great Lakes. The terrain along the border is sparsely populated, focusing on the natural transition from the river valley to the rugged shoreline of the north woods. This modern edition captures the exact path of the border at a point of intersection between national and state jurisdictions during the early 21st century.
