About this map

Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore dominates this coastal landscape on the eastern shore of Lake Michigan. The map illustrates the shifting sands of the Sleeping Bear Dunes and the prominent Sleeping Bear Point, which protects the waters of Sleeping Bear Bay. In the northern waters, the Manitou Passage serves as a critical maritime corridor, while the Sleeping Bear Shoal provides a submerged landmark for navigators.

Human settlement is concentrated in the small communities of Glen Haven and Glen Arbor, situated near the northwestern edge of Glen Lake. Local infrastructure is defined by a network of specialized routes such as Dune Valley Rd, Day Farm Rd, and Day Campground Rd. This survey documents the intersection of recreational public lands and established residential enclaves within Leelanau County, showing the proximity of private homesteads to the preserved dunes and shoreline.
