About this map

Lake Superior defines the northern edge of this coastal landscape in Ontonagon County, where the small community of Green sits along the M-64 corridor. The settlement is anchored by the Finnish Evangelical Lutheran Cem, a significant marker of the area's cultural heritage and immigrant history. A dense network of drainage systems, including the Cranberry River, Floodwood River, and Potato River, flows northward toward the lake, cutting through the terrain and dictating the placement of local roads.

The southern portion of the map transition into the Ottawa National Forest, where the landscape becomes more focused on timber and natural resource management. Local roads such as Heikkila Rd and Hokkanen Rd reveal family-named landmarks that are invaluable for genealogists tracing local history. In the southeast, the uniquely named Cunningham Diggings Cr suggests the area's legacy of exploration and resource extraction.
