2017 Map of Green Hills

About this map

Green Hills sits at the center of this Upper Peninsula landscape, where a dense network of forest roads and truck trails navigates a terrain defined by glacial lakes and wetlands. The drainage of the Middle Branch Escanaba River dominates the northeastern section, fed by the Hawkins Ponds and smaller tributaries like Flopper Cr. This 2017 survey reveals the intricate hydrography of the region, from the clustered Chain Lakes and Charley Lakes in the southeast to the isolated waters of Kidney Lake and Hurt Lake in the southwest. Historical land use is suggested by primitive routes such as Camp Truck Trl and Tower Truck Trl, which likely served forestry or fire observation needs. The map captures the remote character of Marquette County, showing the persistent presence of named water bodies like Big Bass Lake and Pilliot Lake alongside the established path of Bryan Creek Rd.
