From the map: "The location of dominating features of the report are shown, namely, the Main Axes, the Circumferential Rings, the Civic Administrative and Transportation Centers, the River Front, and the Park System. The last named largely exists, as shown by green color; orange represents proposed parks, parkways or playgrounds. The function of the City Plan of Minneapolis is the logical completion of the existing system." This map corresponds with the published book, Plan of Minneapolis, prepared under the direction of the Civic commission, MCMXVII, by Edward H. Bennett, architect, 227 pages, 1917.

Description:
The Bureau of Mines created this map to study Canadian geologic details as well as locations of Indian reserves. From Sturgeon River on the west to Potato Lake on the east. And from Kah-petogamak Lake on the south to Crow Lake on the north. There is much detail in identified land plots (or allotments?) around Bad Vermillion Lake and south of Little Turtle Lake. It projects the route of the Ontario and Rainy River Railway. Its geologic legend tells of soil and rock types. This is a map of Ernest Oberholtzer's home watershed and made a full decade before he arrived to canoe it. Shows water levels before the dam at International Falls.
