1985 Map of Frederic

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

The Manistee River flows southward through a landscape defined by the intersection of four Northern Michigan counties and three vast state forests in the mid-1980s. The village of Frederic serves as the primary settlement on the eastern edge, situated near the headwaters of the Au Sable State Forest. To the west, the river corridor passes through the Pere Marquette State Forest, where the remote locations of Deward and Ishaward mark the sites of former lumbering operations. The terrain is characterized by glacial features like Toll Hill and numerous kettle lakes, including Lost Lake, Cranberry Lake, and Camel Lake. Industrial footprints of the era are visible through the Pumping Station and Substation, while local history is anchored by the Cem near the township lines. This survey captures a specific moment in Michigan's conservation history, where the Mackinaw State Forest boundaries meet the working river systems.
