About this map

The Huron National Forest dominates this Alcona County landscape, preserving a network of glacial hills and wetlands. In the northern section, elevations rise at Kelly Hills and Chin Whisker Hill, while the southern terrain is defined by the drainage of the W Br Pine River. A complex of wetlands and small lakes, including Fannys Marsh, Big Marsh, and Mossy Bog, suggests the low-lying character of the central basin. Modern recreational use is visible through the extensive Reid Lake Trails near Reid Lake and the Alcona Atv Trail. The survey reveals a region primarily dedicated to conservation and forestry, with few permanent structures outside of seasonal camps and forest service access roads like Grosse Pointe Rd and Walker Rd.
