2011 Map of Carney Lake

About this map

Metropolitan stands as a primary point of reference in this Upper Peninsula landscape, situated near the northern reaches of the West Branch Sturgeon River. The terrain is defined by a dense network of small lakes and seasonal drainage systems, reflecting the glaciated topography of Dickinson County. Public access to the outdoors is anchored by the Carney Lake State Forest Campground on the shores of Carney Lake, while smaller water bodies like Crystal Lake, Little Crystal Lake, and Benton Lake are scattered throughout the interior. Numerous creeks, including Mitchell Creek, Seiberts Creek, and Pine Creek, carve through the region, illustrating the intricate watershed that feeds into the larger river systems of the north woods.
