About this map

Barton City serves as the primary hub for this portion of Alcona County, situated near the western edge of the Huron National Forest. The landscape is defined by its proximity to northern Michigan's woodlands and a network of glacial lakes and waterways, including the prominent Jewell Lake and Potter Lake. These water bodies are complemented by the winding paths of the West Branch River and W-Br Pine River, which indicate the region's well-watered topography.

Genealogists will find local history anchored at the Trinity Lutheran Cem and Maple Ridge Cem, while the road network shows the transitions between forest service routes and local thoroughfares like Trask Lake Rd. The presence of Kiecnia In The Woods suggest small pockets of settlement tucked into the expansive forest landscape, illustrating a community deeply integrated with the natural environment of the Lower Peninsula.
