1986 Map of Avery

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

Mackinaw State Forest dominates this northern Michigan landscape, where a dense network of water bodies and timber-focused infrastructure defines the terrain. The presence of an Old Railroad Grade cutting across the central hills reflects the region's historical reliance on logging transport, connecting the upper reaches of the Thunder Bay River with the settlement at Avery. The topography is characterized by intricate drainage systems, with Gilchrist Creek, Nugent Creek, and Hunt Creek feeding into the larger river network. To the east, Lockwood Lake and its associated Lockwood Creek offer a distinct focal point for local geography. Small-scale industrial activity is noted at a Gravel Pit near the southern boundary, while Blue Lake sits in the southwestern portion of the forest, illustrating the typical kettle-lake geology of Montmorency County during the mid-1980s.
