About this map

Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore dominates this coastal landscape, where the shifting sands of the Sleeping Bear Dunes meet the waters of Lake Michigan. The small settlement of Glen Haven serves as a focal point along the shoreline of Sleeping Bear Bay, providing a historical anchor for the area's maritime and recreational identity. The map illustrates a complex network of footpaths and access routes, including the Sleeping Bear Point Trail and Dunes Trail, which navigate the elevation changes between the shore and the higher ridges.

Deep water features like Manitou Passage and the underwater hazards of Sleeping Bear Shoal are clearly delineated, reflecting the area's significance for Great Lakes navigation. Further inland, the northern edge of Glen Lake and landmarks such as Alligator Hill Trail W Loop show the transition from the sandy lakefront to more stabilized forested terrain. The inclusion of the SB Heritage Trail Paved highlights the modern infrastructure supporting access through these protected lands.
