About this map

Champion and Beacon serve as the primary centers of settlement in this part of Marquette County, where the local street grid including Dalliba St and Graphite St meets the Iron Ore Heritage Trl. The geography is defined by a dense network of water bodies, most notably the eastern reach of Lake Michigamme and the winding course of the Middle Branch Escanaba River. Small clusters like Wobic and Martins Landing are situated along the transit corridors that link these remote Michigan woods.

Genealogists will find the locations of Sacred Heart Cem and Champion Cem essential for tracing local family history. To the north, the landscape becomes increasingly dominated by isolated lakes and creeks, such as Dishno Lake and Log Lake, accessible via rugged tracks like Wildcat Cr Rd and the Clowry-Nestoria Trl, illustrating the region's enduring character as a timber and mineral resource area.
