About this map

The Pigeon River system defines this Cheboygan County landscape, winding northward through a network of creeks and small glacial lakes. Near the northern boundary, the settlement of Afton sits alongside Kimberly Creek, while Fingerboard Corner marks a rural intersection to the east. The terrain is characterized by its numerous water bodies, including Lake Sixteen, Lost Lake, and the expansive Dog Lake to the southeast.

Genealogical interest centers on the Walker Township Cemetery located along Walker Rd, providing a specific point for local history research. Cultural landmarks such as the Osmun Lake Lookout Tower overlook Osmun Lake, reflecting the region's management of its timber and water resources. The road network, featuring routes like Old M-33 Rd and Pigeon River Rd, illustrates the rural connectivity between isolated homesteads and the river valleys of the McMasters Creek and McIntosh Creek watersheds.
