2019 Map of Freedom

About this map

Freedom lies near the shoreline of Lake Huron in this northern Michigan landscape, where the boundary between Emmet County and Cheboygan County bisects a region of extensive wetlands and small inland lakes. The N Central State Trail follows the former rail corridor across the northern edge of the map, passing through the marshlands of Mill Creek. To the south, a network of county roads like Hebron Mail Route Road and Levering Road connects rural homesteads and the Hebron Cemetery. The geography is defined by a series of distinct water bodies including Lake Paradise, Nolten Lake, Sommers Lake, and the expansive Dingman Marsh, illustrating the complex drainage patterns of the Tip of the Mitt before they reach the Great Lakes.
