Abstract: This report decribes a body of survey data from the lake-forest region of the southern edge of the Canadian Shield in Northwest Ontario, an areasimilar in physiographic and biotic composition to north central and northeastern Minnesota. The survey was carried out as part of a multi-year and multi-disciplinary project with the Ontario Government to investigate a large portion of Northwest Ontario under consideration for large-scale timber extraction. Survey data is included from the Southeast Lac Seul region and preliminary generalizations concerning boreal forest-shield settlement systems are offered. Problems inherent in northern lakeshore surveys are described and possible solutions are suggested. The primary purpose of this report is to disseminate basic survey data which so often remains buried and forgotten in laboratory files.
