USGS Topo · Published 1960About this map
The Muskegon River carves through the heart of Mecosta County, defining the growth of Big Rapids in the late 1950s. This industrial and educational hub is anchored by the Ferris Institute and a robust transport network, including the Pennsylvania railroad line. The landscape is a complex patchwork of glacial lakes and managed lands, from the Haymarsh Lake State Game Area in the north to the Chippewa River State Forest and portions of the Manistee National Forest in the south.
