2018 Map of Amnicon Point

About this map

Madeline Island and its northern coastal reaches are the central focus of this 2018 survey of the Apostle Islands National Lakeshore. The map illustrates the island's relationship with Lake Superior, capturing the intricate shoreline from Steamboat Point to the prominent Amnicon Point. The landscape is defined by local access routes like Chippewa Trl and Big Bay Rd, which connect small inland parcels to the water's edge. A distinctive coastal feature, Devils Cauldron, sits near the northern tip, while the eastern horizon includes a portion of Michigan Island. The network of roads, including School House Rd and N Shore Rd, reflects the island's modern layout, showing the balance between protected national lakeshore land and the residential and recreational corridors that serve this unique island community.
