About this map

Pere Marquette River meanders sharply through this mid-1970s orthophoto, its winding path creating a corridor of dense vegetation amidst a landscape of geometric agricultural fields and woodlots. In the northwest, the settlement of Custer sits at a crossroads, serving as the primary hub for the surrounding rural Mason County community. This orthophotographic study, derived from high-altitude aerial imagery, reveals the precise distribution of farmland and the drainage patterns that define this part of West Michigan. The contrast between the river's natural, erratic course and the straight-line grid of the local roads illustrates the intersection of glacial geography and human organization during this era.
