1985 Map of Granite Point

About this map

Lake Superior dominates this mid-1980s coastal survey, where the deep waters of the lake meet the shoreline of Marquette County. The prominent rocky protrusion of Granite Point serves as a clear landmark along this section of the coast, situated north of the expansive Escanaba River State Forest. The map captures a largely undeveloped wilderness character, defined by the Sand deposits and dense woodlands that characterize this part of the Upper Peninsula. Surveying details such as the Fifth Correction Line and section markers for T 50 N and R 26 W provide essential geographic context for researchers tracing land divisions and property boundaries within the state forest and along the lake's edge.
