About this map

The Hiawatha National Forest blankets much of this landscape on the boundary of Delta and Schoolcraft counties. The settlement of Cooks serves as a local hub, featuring a Post Office and the Cooks Cemetery. To the east and north, smaller named locales like Springer and Elkhorn mark the rural transition between timberland and private holdings.

Water defines the topography, with a complex network of wetlands and streams including Little Fishdam River, Spring Creek, and Archambeau Creek feeding into numerous small lakes. For those tracing local heritage, the map identifies three distinct burial grounds: the Seventh Day Adventist Cemetery, the primary cemetery in Cooks, and the more secluded Old Cooks Cemetery. Family-named roads such as Carlson Road and Saltzman Road provide further clues to the area's 21st-century residential patterns.
