About this map

Felch and its surrounding landscape are defined by the convergence of industrial heritage and a dense network of waterways in Dickinson County. The township's history is anchored by the Calumet Mine, with its proximity to the Felch Cem providing a genealogical anchor for local families. The West Branch of the Sturgeon River winds through the quadrangle, punctuated by Upper Mill Pond Falls and Lower Mill Pond Falls, suggesting a legacy of water-powered industry or early settlement clusters.

A network of local roads such as Fine Town Rd and Waucedah Rd connect the settlement of Spruce to numerous glacial water bodies, including Roosevelt Lake, Necktie Lake, and Petes Lake. The transition from the high ground of the Calumet Mine down to the basins of Breen Cr and Jansen Cr reveals a terrain shaped by both resource extraction and the winding paths of the Upper Peninsula's river systems.
