DescriptionMap of Ohio and part of Lake Erie. The boundary lines are marked with broken solid lines and pink watercolor. There is a network of lines, colored green, and one colored red, that show the state's network of canals. None of the places on the map are labeled; instead, there are numbers and letters, some marked with circles, that correspond with information in the key, published separately from the map. Natural features include rivers, the lake and islands.
