About this map

Keweenaw National Historical Park preserves the deep legacy of Michigan's copper country on this northern peninsula. The landscape is defined by the transition from the rocky shores of Lake Superior at Sevenmile Point to the elevated industrial and residential clusters of the Keweenaw Ridge. A dense network of local roads such as Kezele Farm Rd and Farmers Block Rd serves the rural outskirts, while the central corridor is anchored by established mining-era settlements like Ahmeek, Allouez, and Centennial Heights.

Infrastructure for both modern recreation and historical industry is visible throughout, including the Keweenaw State Trail and the Wolverine Railroad St. Genealogists will find significant value in the documentation of several local burial grounds, including Ahmeek Cem, Schoolcraft Cem, and Lakeview Cem. The water system is equally complex, featuring Calumet Lake, Seneca Lake, and the cascading waters of the Gratiot River at its Upper Falls and Lower Falls.
