2010 Map of Swansons Bay

About this map

Sand Point Lake dominates the southwestern quadrant of this 2010 survey, representing a remote aquatic landscape along the international border. The boundary between the United States and Canada bisects the water, tracing a path north from Sand Point Lake toward the interior of the Rainy River District. Amidst this vast expanse of water, Burnt Island stands as a prominent terrestrial landmark. The map's sparse labels emphasize the wilderness character of the region, where natural features rather than human settlements define the geography. This document illustrates the intersection of national jurisdictions within the shared water systems of the North Woods, where the transition from water to land is marked by unnamed peninsulas and intricate shorelines.
