About this map

Dryburg and Fibre stand as primary settlements within this northern Michigan landscape, situated just north of the border between Chippewa and Mackinac counties. This 2017 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey reveals a region defined by extensive timberlands and a dense network of watercourses, with a significant portion of the territory protected as part of the Hiawatha National Forest. The local geography is etched by the winding paths of the Pine River, Trout Brook, and Biscuit Cr, which drain the low-lying terrain into the Great Lakes watershed.

A grid of rural roads, including Trout Lake Rd and S Dryburg Rd, connects the scattered farmsteads and logging sites. Smaller landmarks like Dawd Field and family-named routes such as Saaranen Rd and S Tromblay Rd provide granular detail for those tracing local land ownership or genealogical roots in Rudyard Township. The map illustrates the persistent intersection of wilderness and rural development in the Eastern Upper Peninsula.
