About this map

Lake Superior shoreline dominates the northern edge of this Michigan wilderness, where the legendary Two Hearted River meets the Great Lakes coast. The landscape is defined by a dense network of inland water bodies and river systems, including the Little Two Hearted River and East Branch Two Hearted River, which meander through the low-lying glacial terrain. Significant for hikers and conservationists, the North Country National Scenic Trail parallels the coast, providing access to this remote stretch of Luce County. A series of kettle lakes, such as Pike Lake, Round Lake, and the suggestively named Homestead Lake, are connected by local routes like Pike Lake Rd and Two Hearted Landing Rd, indicating a history of seasonal camps and early settlement attempts in the Upper Peninsula woods.
