About this map

The Menominee River serves as the primary geographic corridor of this borderland, winding between Michigan and Wisconsin to define the southwestern boundary. Along its course, numerous river islands including Ile Le Grand, Nose Peak Island, Green Island, and Long Island create a complex waterway that supported historic timber and regional transit. The interior landscape is dotted with numerous small lakes such as Lake Shannon, Merryman Lake, and Kimlark Lake, while the Pemebonwon River and its branches feed into the main river channel.

Settlement patterns center on the rural communities of Faithorn and Kremlin, connected by a network of local routes like Co Hwy R and Pemene Dam Rd. For those tracing local heritage, the map identifies several local burial sites, notably Saint Mary's Church Cem, Riverside Cem, and Hillcrest Cem. The presence of Pemebonwon Islands Falls further illustrates the varied hydrography of the Menominee Valley.
