History

For many years, commercial boats provided regular service to the islands and to Kenora, Ontario at the north end of Lake of the Woods. Although devastating, not a single human casualty was reported. Lives were saved by the technologies used in advance of this disaster. In the 20th century, the town had a strong commercial fishing industry, which gradually turned to sport fishing and tourism. The storm produced a path of destruction approximately 3 miles long and 600 yards wide, destroying much of the infrastructure in its path.
