About this map

Old Mission and the northern tip of the Old Mission Peninsula define the western half of this 2014 survey, where the land narrows toward Old Mission Point and Leffingwell Point. This finger of land is bounded by Grand Traverse Bay and Lake Michigan, showing a landscape dominated by shoreline access points like Haserot Beach and Old Mission Harbor. Genealogists may find interest in the location of Lakeside Cem on the peninsula or Maple Grove Cem near the eastern shore.

Across the East Arm Grand Traverse Bay, the village of Elk Rapids sits at the confluence of the Elk River and the bay. The map illustrates the town's grid and its relationship to the surrounding chain of lakes, including Bass Lake and the northern reaches of Elk Lake. Further north along the coast, the settlement of Kewadin marks the eastern shoreline, connected by local routes like Cairn Hwy and E Harbor Dr.
