About this map

The settlement of Felch serves as the focal point for this Dickinson County terrain, situated near the Felch Cem and the winding course of Quarry Creek. The landscape is defined by the convergence of several significant water systems, most notably the West Branch Sturgeon River and the East Branch Sturgeon River, which carve through the dense forests of northern Michigan. Local history is reflected in the naming of rural roads such as Metropolitan Rd and Nurse Carlson Rd, while the Felch Grade Route Trl hints at the area's industrial past and former rail corridors.

A network of small lakes, including Roosevelt Lake, Lyons Lake, and Moose Lake, provides a quiet counterpoint to the larger river systems. Further south, the drainage basin of Breen Creek and the South Branch Breen Creek dominates the topography. This survey effectively captures the modern road network, from Co Rd 581 to the more remote Norway Truck Trl, illustrating the contemporary settlement patterns surrounding the community of Spruce.
