Ernest Oberholtzer is educating the reader about the impact of proposed dams. This could be the Backus-proposed dams in the mid-1920s. Dotted lines, ink on parchment, define the Rainy Lake Watershed and the international border. Rail lines are drawn and major lakes are noted. This could well be Oberholtzer's hand-work. Map goes from the western shore of Lake of the Woods to Fort William on the east. Rainer [sic] town name is spelled wrong.
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.
