1982 Map of Glitter Lake

About this map

The Ottawa National Forest dominates this northern Michigan landscape, characterized by a dense network of glacial lakes and wetlands along the border of Houghton and Iron counties. Recorded as it appeared in the late 1970s and early 1980s, the terrain is defined by the winding course of the East Branch Ontonagon River and prominent elevations such as Haystack Mountain. This water-rich environment features a concentration of small, secluded water bodies including Glitter Lake, Dunn Lake, and Tepee Lake, many of which are linked by smaller tributaries like Stony Creek and Passmore Creek. The presence of Passmore Springs and numerous unnamed marshes suggests a primitive, resource-oriented landscape where traditional timber or recreational activities would have been the primary human footprint within the Duncan township area.
