2011 Map of Backus Lake
USGS Topo · Published 2011About this map
Backus Lake and its surrounding wetlands dominate this Roscommon County landscape, characterized by significant hydrological management through various flooding zones. These areas, including Little Mud Lake Flooding, Backus Creek Flooding, and Denton Creek Flooding, indicate a managed water system designed to support local ecosystems or recreational needs. The drainage network is intricately linked by Backus Creek and the North Branch Denton Creek, which wind through the terrain alongside several smaller bodies of water like Shadow Lake and Lake James.
