2019 Map of South Fowl Lake

About this map

The Canada-United States border defines the southern reach of this 2019 survey, tracing the winding course of the Pigeon River. This international boundary separates the wilderness of Superior National Forest from the Ontario landscape to the north. Waterways dominate the terrain, notably South Fowl Lake and the Arrow River, which together with the Little Whitefish River form a complex hydrologic network. The map reveals a landscape primarily accessible via the Border Route, highlighting the remote and protected nature of this corner of Cook County. Smaller tributaries such as the Stump River and Portage Brook feed into the larger river systems, illustrating the natural drainage patterns that have historically dictated travel and boundary lines in this northern forest region.
