About this map

Porcupine Mountains State Park dominates the southern shoreline of Lake Superior in this mid-century survey of the Upper Peninsula. The landscape is defined by the sharp elevations of the Porcupine Mountains, featuring high points like Green Mountain Peak and Miscowawbic Peak. This area, split by the boundary of Ontonagon and Gogebic counties, preserves a wilderness character despite the presence of the LaFayette Mine and the small coastal outposts at Buckshot Landing and LaFayette Landing.
