Hiawatha National Forest dominates the northwestern shoreline of this coastal survey, where the terrestrial landscape of Delta County meets the expansive waters of Big Bay de Noc. The geography is defined by its maritime interfaces, most notably at Chippewa Point, which serves as a prominent landform separating the inner bay from the larger reaches of Lake Michigan and Green Bay. Inland, the forest contains specialized hydrological features including Granskog Lake and the smaller Indian Town Lake, connected by drainage systems like Granskog Cr. To the northeast, the isolated Round Island sits offshore, marking the transition into the open waters. This map provides a clear view of the protected coastal wilderness and its natural drainage patterns before modern development significantly altered the lakefront character.
