2017 Map of Champion

About this map

The settlement of Champion serves as a central hub in this Marquette County landscape, where the local road network—including Dalliba St, Swedetown St, and Graphite St—reflects the community's residential and industrial foundations. To the west, the village of Beacon sits near the shores of Lake Michigamme, while smaller named points like Wobic, Martins Landing, and Clowry suggest the historical distribution of activity across the township. The Middle Br Escanaba River and its tributaries, including Kipple Cr and Halfway Cr, weave through a terrain defined by numerous bodies of water such as Log Lake, Round Lake, and Dishno Lake. For genealogists, the location of the Sacred Heart Cem provides a specific point of reference for early residents of this northern Michigan mining and timber region.
