These maps accompany the International Boundary Commission's report to survey and delineate the border between the United States and Canada. The Commission's efforts were concentrated on the traditional voyageurs highway, which now divides the Boundary Waters Canoe Wilderness Area and Quetico Provincial Park.
This is a map of the Boundary Waters region, and shows great detail on lake and river names. Area north of the international boundary is called "Hunter's Island." The roads and railroads are marked, as well as trails, ranger stations and telephone lines. Additions to the Superior National Forest Proclamation Boundary are shown using a reddish cross hatching.
