About this map

The international border between the United States of America/Canada defines the northern edge of this northern Minnesota landscape. Situated in the extreme corner of Kittson Co, the area is characterized by an intricate network of wetlands and river systems that meander across the flat terrain. This survey reflects a sparsely populated wilderness where natural water features dominate the geography over human infrastructure. The hydrology recorded on this sheet illustrates the complex drainage patterns of the far north, showing how water move through Minnesota as it approaches the Canadian boundary. With no major settlements or roads named on this particular sheet, the focus remains entirely on the preservation of the remote borderland environment and its native aquatic systems.
