About

About this crossing

The International Falls–Fort Frances crossing joins northwestern Ontario with Minnesota's shore of the Rainy River. It is the port of the lakes-and-paper country: forestry cargo, the twin communities' passenger traffic, and the anglers-and-cabins flow that animates the area each summer. As the only crossing along hundreds of kilometers of lake border, it gathers all the regional movement, with waits that stay short outside the summer season.
