About this map

Manistique Lake and Whitefish Lake dominate the western landscape of this Upper Peninsula survey, conducted in the early 1930s. The region shows a transition from water-based commerce and settlement to an economy driven by timber and early motoring. A prominent Logging RR winds through the wetlands, illustrating the active lumber industry that defined the era, while State Highway No 135 provides a modern corridor through the center of the township. Local community life is anchored by small, isolated landmarks such as Sandtown Sch and the Sandtown Cem to the east, while the village of Curtis sits at the narrow isthmus between the two lakes. To the north, the boundary between Luce and Mackinac counties cuts through dense marshland, where sites like Camp 11 reflect the transient nature of regional work camps.
