About this map

The Driggs River meanders through this Schoolcraft County landscape, defining a complex hydraulic environment dominated by an extensive network of managed waterways. This 2011 survey illustrates the intensive water management of the Upper Peninsula, featuring major infrastructure such as the Unit Number One Diversion Ditch, the Unit Number Two Diversion Ditch, and the East West Ditch. These artificial channels, alongside the Twomile Ditch, demonstrate how the region's natural drainage has been modified for ecological or agricultural purposes.

Several named pools, including Sweeney Pool, C-Three Pool, and A-Two Pool, appear as part of the broader wetlands managed by the Riverside Dike. Primary access to the interior is provided by Driggs River Rd and the m28 corridor. For the historian or researcher, the map documents the modern state of these water systems, showing the convergence of natural tributaries like Walsh Creek and Pine Creek with mid-century and later engineering projects.
