1985 Map of Baraga Plains

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

Copper Country State Forest and the Ottawa National Forest dominate this mid-1980s terrain in Michigan's Upper Peninsula. The landscape is defined by the Baraga Plains, a plateau characterized by glacial drainage patterns that feed into numerous small basins and creeks. Water is the primary feature of this interior wilderness, with systems like Ogemaw Creek leading to the distinctive Ogemaw Falls. Human presence is sparse but specific, centered on the Prison Farm and a scattered network of small lakes including Kelly Lake, Engman Lake, and Robillard Lake. The map reveals a transition between dense forest management and open plains, with several small waterways like Menge Creek and Leviture Creek carving through the northern sections of the forest.
