About
Ojibways of the Pic River First Nation, now known as Biigtigong Nishnaabeg, is an Ojibway (Anishinaabe) First Nation on the northern shore of Lake Superior. Pic River is not a signatory to the Robinson Superior treaty. However, the people petitioned, starting in 1879, for a reserve and the request was subsequently granted.
The community is located on the northern shore of Lake Superior at the mouth of the Pic River, south of Highway 17 on Lake Superior near Marathon, Ontario, on a reserve called Pic River 50. In May 2021, the band's registered population was 1,238 people, of which their on-reserve population was 536.
