About this map

Felch stands as a primary settlement in this Dickinson County landscape, situated near the headwaters of the West Branch Sturgeon River. The town's local services are anchored by the Felch Post Office and the nearby Felch Cemetery, reflecting the community's established history in the Upper Peninsula. To the east, the smaller cluster of Spruce sits along the road network near Quarry Creek, illustrating the dispersed nature of settlement in this timbered region.

The drainage patterns of the Sturgeon River system dominate the geography, featuring the Upper Mill Pond Falls and Lower Mill Pond Falls north of the main river branch. The terrain is dotted with numerous named water bodies that define the local character, including Roosevelt Lake, Petes Lake, and Necktie Lake. These features, along with waterways like Jansen Creek and Breen Creek, reveal a landscape shaped by glacial activity and long-standing importance to local resource management and recreation.
