1964 Map of Burnt Island

USGS Topo · Published 1982

About this map

Potagannissing Bay serves as a complex aquatic crossroads where the international boundary between Michigan and Ontario winds through a dense archipelago. This mid-century topographical record of Drummond Twp captures the remote island character of northern Lake Huron, dominated by the heavily wooded reaches of the Drummond Island State Forest. Small-scale industrial activity is evident at the Quarry near the eastern shoreline, while the interior is marked by secluded water bodies like Stringham Lake. The survey details a landscape of strategic maritime passages, including De Tour Passage Saint Marys River, which separates the mainland from these island outposts. Numerous landforms such as Burnt Island, Harbor Island, and Big Trout Island define the intricate shoreline, providing a clear view of the region's geography before significant modern development altered the coastal fringe.
