2015 Map of Cedar

About this map

Lake Superior dominates the northern horizon of this landscape, where the administrative boundary of Ashland Co Iron Co cuts southward through dense terrain. The settlement of Cedar serves as a local anchor in the southeast, while smaller communities like Birch Hill and Birch are linked by a network of rural roads including Resvn Hwy 5 and Old Hwy 10. The topography is defined by numerous drainage systems, such as Graveyard Cr and Sugarbush Cr, which flow toward the Great Lake. In the northwest corner, the Bad River Slough marks a transition into more wetland-rich coastal environments near Lake Rd. This modern survey illustrates the persistent rural character of the region, where family and place names like Franks Field and landmarks such as Marble Point reflect a long-standing relationship between the community and the lake-shore environment.
