1970 Map of Bay Port West

About this map

Saginaw Bay and the marshy archipelago of Wildfowl Bay dominate this coastal survey of Michigan’s Thumb region. The landscape is defined by the transition from open water to the dense wetlands of the Fairhaven State Wildlife Area, where complex channels like Rush Cut, Dynamite Cut, and Blind Pass navigate between Heisterman Island and the Middle Grounds. These intricate waterways reflect a coastline managed for both ecological preservation and recreational access, as evidenced by several boat ramps and the nearby Roadside Park.
