About this map

The Sturgeon River and its numerous tributaries, including Kelsey Cr and the Little Carp River, define the landscape of this region near the L'Anse Indian Reservation. Small settlements and rural developments are clustered along the eastern portion of the map, notably at Bear Town and the northern edge of Baraga. The infrastructure here reflects a mix of local aviation at the Baraga Airport, industry via the Ojibwa Industrial Park Rd, and traditional rural life.

Genealogists may find interest in the Keweenaw Bay Cem located in the northeast, while the road network is heavily marked by family-named routes such as Alatalo Rd, Jarvi Rd, and Karvakko Rd. The southern reaches of the map transition into the Ottawa National Forest, where Bendry Lake and Hazel Cr sit amidst a more forested terrain, highlighting the division between the township's settled corridors and the protected northern woods.
