About this map

Comins serves as the central hub of this northern Michigan landscape, situated where the Montmorency Co Oscoda Co line divides the township grids. The terrain is defined by a complex glacial hydrology, featuring numerous isolated basins such as Whitabee Lake, McCreedie Lake, and the cluster of Little Bass Lake and Bass Lake to the east. These water bodies, along with the headwaters of Gilchrist Cr and Boiling Spring Cr, dominate the geography north of the Huron National Forest boundary.

Local history is etched into the landscape through features like the Loud Cem near the northern border and a dense network of country roads including Delano Rd and Cedar Run Rd. The map illustrates a transition from the structured farm blocks and woodlots of the northern sections to the protected woodlands of the national forest in the south, while the Comins Marsh provides a significant natural landmark just east of the primary settlement.
