1986 Map of Felch

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

The Copper Country State Forest dominates this section of the Upper Peninsula, where the timber and mining industries have shaped the landscape. Centered around the settlement of Felch, the map reveals a network of industrial legacy markers, including a Rock Quarry and a prominent Lookout Tower positioned for fire overwatch. An Old Railroad Grade traces the historic transport routes that once hauled heavy minerals and timber through the townships of Felch, Breen, and Waucedah. The hydrology is defined by the Sturgeon River and its numerous tributaries like Finn Town Creek, which pass through a terrain dotted with small glacial lakes such as Necktie Lake and Brown Lake. This 1980s-era survey documents the transition from active industrial extraction to managed forest land, preserving the locations of smaller locales like Spruce and the uniquely named Finn Town.
