2023 Map of Green Timbers

About this map

The Sturgeon River carves a central path through this section of the northern Michigan landscape, defining a corridor of wetlands and tributaries across the border of Cheboygan and Otsego counties. The settlement of Trowbridge sits near the northwestern corner, positioned along a transportation corridor that includes the North Central State Trl and the Cornwell Grade RD, the latter reflecting the area's history of logging and resource management. This interior region is characterized by a high density of water bodies and streams, including Lance Lake, Pickerel Lake, and the winding Little Pigeon River. Toward the south, the namesake Green Timbers area and the prominence of Mount Vernon stand out as significant landmarks. The map also documents an extensive network of specialized recreational paths, such as the Tomahawk Motorcycle Trail C Loop, which interweave with secondary roads like Shire RD and Pitoniak RD through the wooded terrain.
