2017 Map of Foote Site Village

About this map

The Au Sable River winds through the heart of this landscape, its path significantly altered by the impoundment at Foote Dam Pond. This 2017 survey details the area around Foote Site Village and Wilber, showing the intersection of recreational trails and heavy-duty infrastructure. Much of the southern and central terrain is preserved within the Huron National Forest, where a complex network of equestrian and hiking paths like the Mi Shore to Shore Horse&Hike and Oscoda-Alcona Smt Dnr96 cut through the timber. To the northeast, the Oscoda-Wurtsmith Airport and the southern tip of Van Etten Lake signal the transition toward more developed coastal zones. Local history is anchored by features like the Chippewa Cem and a series of agricultural drainage systems including State Ditch and Tuttle Ditch.
