About this map

Lake Michigan dominates this hydrographic survey, which focuses on the maritime boundary between Michigan and Wisconsin. The primary terrestrial landmark is Little Gull Island, located in the northern reaches of the sheet within Section 24 t36n r20w. This remote landmass serves as a critical point of reference in an area otherwise defined by open water and state-level jurisdictional lines.

A diagonal boundary line cuts across the waters, marking the division between Delta County, Michigan, and Door County, Wisconsin. This 2017 chart captures the precise spatial relationship between these two states, illustrating how the legal borders of the Upper Peninsula and Wisconsin's Door Peninsula extend far into the Great Lakes. The map provides essential data for understanding the maritime limits of Michigan and Wisconsin in this specific corner of the lake.
