Lake Erie dominates this coastal survey, where the international boundary and state line intersect the open waters of the Great Lakes. The map illustrates the aquatic border where Michigan and Ohio meet, also marking the division between Monroe County and Lucas County. Near the northern edge of the sheet, the shoreline comes into focus at La Plaisance Bay, a significant maritime entry point for the region. The small landform of Smiths Island sits just offshore, providing a rare terrestrial marker in an area otherwise defined by depth and distance. This modern data illustrates the precise jurisdictional boundaries that persist across the western basin of the lake, serving as a vital reference for understanding the watery frontier between these two states.
