About this map

Afton and the nearby Fingerboard Corner serve as the primary landmarks in this 2014 survey of north-central Michigan. The landscape is defined by its complex hydrography, dominated by the Pigeon River and its tributary, the Little Pigeon River, which wind through the terrain alongside numerous named water bodies including Dog Lake, Lake Sixteen, and MacAndrews Lake. These waterways are fed by smaller streams such as Kimberly Cr and McMasters Cr, reflecting a region deeply tied to its natural drainage patterns.

Local history and genealogy interests are centered at the Walker Township Cem, located near the junction of N Walker Rd and W Rd. The infrastructure of the area relies on a network of state routes like M-33 and E M-68 Hwy, which intersect with local paths such as Osmun Rd and Dog Lake Rd. The map provides a clear look at the township divisions, capturing the rural character of the region before further modern development.
