2019 Map of Cusino

About this map

Cusino sits as a central point of human settlement within this interior section of the Upper Peninsula, located at the boundary of Alger and Schoolcraft Counties. The landscape is defined by an extensive network of wetlands and small water bodies, notably the Creighton Marsh and the headwaters of the Creighton River. The northwestern corner of the sheet includes a portion of the Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore, indicating the proximity of the Lake Superior coastline just beyond the map's edge. A complex system of forest roads and trails, such as the Twin Lake Truck Trl and Camp Rd, crisscross the area, serving the many interior lakes like Worchester Lake and Gemini Lakes. The drainage pattern, including Shotgun Cr and Marsh Creek, highlights the low-lying, water-rich environment characteristic of this part of the Hiawatha Township region.
