1964 Map of Brevort

About this map

The northern shoreline of Lake Michigan dominates this mid-century survey of the Mackinac coast, anchored by the settlement of Brevort. The landscape is defined by the dense wetlands and timber of the Mackinac State Forest, crisscrossed by a network of historic routes including the Caffey Trail and Dells Mills Trail. Along the coast, the Brevort Airport and Highbanks reflect the area's mid-century development, while the Brevort Cem provides a focal point for genealogical research. Further east, the map details the recreation-heavy environment of Little Brevoort Lake, including the Little Brevoort Lake Campground. Significant water features like the Cut River and the Carp River provide a look at the natural drainage patterns that shaped early logging and transport in this part of Moran township.
