About this map

Hiawatha National Forest dominates this section of the Upper Peninsula, where a dense network of glacial lakes and wetlands defines the Michigan landscape. The hydrology is centered around the Fishdam River, which draws from several water bodies including Gooseneck Lake and Camp Seven Lake. This 2014 survey documents the intricate drainage patterns of the area, featuring named creeks such as Eighteenmile Cr and Kilpecker Cr, which wind through the forested township lines.

Remote lakes like Ganamush Lake, Jackpine Lake, and Chicago Lake are scattered throughout the interior, connected by a web of forest service roads and trails. The map detail highlights the diverse shoreline characteristics of the region, from the smaller Little Stevens Lake and Eva Lake to the larger basins of Van Winkle Lake and Lyman Lake. This record of the Northwoods serves as a primary reference for the naming conventions and exact locations of the hundreds of water features located within the Garden Township area.
