2017 Map of Emerson
USGS Topo · Published 2017About this map
The Emerson settlement occupies a quiet stretch of the Lake Superior shoreline where the Tahquamenon River meets Tahquamenon Bay. This Upper Peninsula landscape is heavily defined by the dense woodlands of the Hiawatha National Forest, interspersed with wetlands and isolated water bodies like Preacher Lake and the Laurie Lakes. The map reveals a transition between coastal activity at Snug Harbor and the interior wilderness, crossed by the N Country Trail and M 123. Local history is preserved at the Baptist Cem and Our Lady of Victory Cem, which sit near the northern edge of the survey area. Small drainages such as Galloway Cr and Black Cr weave through the forest, illustrating the intricate drainage patterns of the Whitefish Township region.
