1999 Map of Beaton

USGS Topo · Published 2005

About this map

The settlement of Beaton sits at the heart of this landscape within the Ottawa National Forest, near the confluence of local forest roads and the waters of Beaton Lake. This 1999 revision reveals a territory defined by a dense network of glacial lakes and wetlands on the border of Gogebic and Ontonagon counties. To the southeast, the protected lands of the Sylvania Wilderness encompass a pristine cluster of water bodies, including Wolf Lake, Ogima Lake, and Sucker Lake. The map details the transition from actively managed forest lands, marked by features like a Landing Strip and various Gravel Pits, to the preserved old-growth character of the wilderness area. Significant water features such as Scott and Howe Creek and Twomile Creek drainage patterns illustrate the complex hydrology of Michigan's Upper Peninsula in the late 20th century.
