About this map

Isle Royale National Park emerges from the waters of Lake Superior in this detailed survey of its northeastern reaches. The landscape is defined by the prominent Greenstone Ridge and a complex archipelago of islands and narrow channels. Small, protected waterways like Snug Harbor and Tobin Harbor provide natural shelter along the coast, serving as critical points of access for this island wilderness.

The map details the fragmented shoreline stretching toward Blake Point, where the land drops off into the depths of the Great Lakes. Numerous named islands, including Merritt Island, Porter Island, and Raspberry Island, demonstrate the intricate geography of Isle Royale. Geological features like The Palisades and inland water bodies such as Hidden Lake illustrate the diverse natural environment preserved within the park boundaries during the early twenty-first century.
