2019 Map of Copper Peak

About this map

The Black Wild and Scenic River carves a deep path through this section of the Ottawa National Forest, defining a landscape where industrial heritage meets modern recreation. Along the southern edge, the residential areas of North Bessemer and Auvinen Corner mark the transition from the city of Bessemer into the highlands. The terrain is punctuated by significant peaks and falls, including the prominent Copper Peak and Big Powderhorn Mtn, alongside natural features like Powder Horn Falls and Rocky Forty Falls. The mapping shows a complex network of forest service roads, such as Nfst-120, and local routes like Black River Rd that connect these remote timberlands. The inclusion of the Gogebic-Iron County Airport and the N Country National Scenic Trail illustrates the diverse use of this Gogebic County terrain, from aviation infrastructure to long-distance wilderness trekking.
