1966 Map of Au Sable Point SE

About this map

Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore and the surrounding woodlands define this 1966 topographic survey of Michigan's Upper Peninsula. The landscape is characterized by a dense concentration of glacial kettle lakes and wetland basins, including Grand Sable Lake, Gypsy Lake, and Lavender Lake. Human imprint on the forest is visible through the Old Railroad Grade and Adams Trail, reflecting the history of resource extraction and fire management in the Grand Sable State Forest. Evidence of forestry infrastructure is preserved at the Gypsy Lake Lookout Tower, while small settlements like Green Haven and Sunrise Landing occupy the few clearings in the timber. This era of mapping documents the transition of these lands into federal preservation, showing the intersection of Burt State Forest and the newly established national lakeshore.
