1969 Map of Alpena
USGS Topo · Published 1969About this map
The waters of Lake Huron and the North Channel dominate this mid-century survey, illustrating the maritime and industrial interface of Northeast Michigan and Ontario. Along the Michigan coast, the Detroit and Mackinac railroad corridor links timber and mining outposts like Hawks and Rogers City to the regional hub at Alpena. The map documents a landscape defined by significant industrial extraction, notably the Limestone Quarry operations near the shoreline, and a strong military and safety presence via the Alpena Air National Guard and a Coast Guard Station on Thunder Bay. To the north, the intricate geography of the Manitoulin chain is detailed, showing a complex network of First Nations lands such as Sheshegwaning Indian Reservation No 20 and Sucker Creek Indian Reservation No 23, alongside interior lakes like Manitou Lake.
