Natural Features

These rivers, once part of a major fur-trading route, merge into a delta here. The delta contains significant, brackish tidal marshes. The area also features a number of historical sites: from ancient Indian communities dating back to 3000 BC, to fur-trading sites from the beginning of the 1800s.
