USGS Topo · Published 1988

About this map

Backus Creek State Game Area and the surrounding Houghton Lake State Forest define this landscape in Roscommon County, dominated by an intricate system of wetlands and managed impoundments. The geography is characterized by several "flooding" areas, including the Little Mud Lake Flooding, Backus Creek Flooding, and Denton Creek Flooding, which illustrate mid-century conservation and water management efforts in Michigan's Lower Peninsula.
