1950 Map of Fletcher

USGS Topo · Published 1953

About this map

The Manistee River snakes across the northern edge of this landscape, carving through a region defined by extensive public lands and military training grounds. In the early 1950s, the Camp Grayling Military Reservation occupied a significant portion of the northern terrain, utilized by the Michigan National Guard. The map reveals a sparsely settled interior where the Fletcher Sch along Fletcher Road stands as a primary community landmark near the junction of Garfield State Forest and Norwich State Forest. Multiple family-named peaks such as Beecher Hill and Ester Hill rise above the wetlands and feeder streams like Cannon Creek and Big Devil Creek. The southern boundary follows the Kalkaska Co Missaukee Co line, where the terrain shifts toward the shores of Grass Lake, illustrating the transition from high glacial hills to low-lying basin drainage.
