2023 Map of Gay

About this map

Gay and the smaller settlement of Snowshoe anchor the northern coastline of the Keweenaw Peninsula, where the land meets the cold expanse of Lake Superior. The landscape is defined by the drainage systems of the Tobacco River and Traverse River, the latter emptying into Traverse Bay near the boundary between Keweenaw and Houghton counties. The infrastructure here reflects a history of industrial and maritime access, seen in names like Coal Dock Rd and the network of forest routes such as Mohawk-Gay Rd and Rice Lake Rd. The southern portion of the map is dominated by the waters of Grand Traverse Bay, punctuated by prominent coastal features like Traverse Point and Louis Point. This area remains a key reference point for understanding the rural development and coastal geography of Michigan's Copper Country.
