1999 Map of Swansons Bay

About this map

Voyageurs National Park defines the southern portion of this international border landscape, where the waters of Namakan Lake meet the United States-Canada boundary. The map illustrates a complex network of glacial lakes and channels, including the bottleneck of the Namakan Narrows and the flow of the Namakan River through Lady Rapids. As a snapshot of the late 20th century, the sheet documents the transition from Minnesota's St. Louis County to Ontario's Rainy River District. The presence of numerous designated Campsites around Redhorse Bay and Swansons Bay highlights the area's established role as a protected wilderness and recreational destination. Prominent landmarks such as Burnt Island and Sand Point serve as key navigational markers for those tracing the historical water routes of this northern borderland.
