2019 Map of Barton City

About this map

Barton City serves as the central hub of this Alcona County landscape, situated just north of the expansive Jewell Lake. The area is defined by a dense network of forest service trails and local roads that weave through the Huron National Forest, reflecting the region's deep connection to timber and recreation. Waterways like the West Branch River and W Br Pine River drain the terrain, which is dotted with smaller water bodies such as Potter Lake and Maynard Lake. Local heritage is anchored by sites like the Trinity Lutheran Cem and Maple Ridge Cem, which provide specific points of interest for genealogical research in this part of northeastern Michigan. The presence of the Alcona ATV Trail and various snowmobile routes highlights the modern recreational utility of these public lands.
