2019 Map of Betsy Lake South

About this map

The Tahquamenon River snakes through the dense wetlands and timberlands of Luce County, providing a central artery for the region's complex hydrology. This interior landscape is defined by its vast network of water bodies, from the prominent Betsy Lake in the north to the smaller Loon Lake and Pine Lake. The map details a significant section of the N Country National Scenic Trail, which traverses the northern tiers of the township near Rat Lake. Evidence of the area's logging and utility history is visible in named routes like Charcoal Grade Rd and Falls Rd. Near the river's bend, The Big Spring and Joys Island mark distinct points of interest along the waterway, while the Upper Falls indicates the dramatic elevation shifts that define this portion of the Tahquamenon watershed.
