About this map

Gull Island emerges from the waters of Lake Michigan as a protected sanctuary within the Michigan Islands National Wildlife Refuge. Located in the remote waters of St James Twp, this isolated landform is a critical point for Great Lakes navigation, marked at its northern tip by a Light. The surrounding aquatic landscape is defined by the extensive Gull Island Reef to the southeast and the smaller southern feature identified as S Gull. This 1980s survey provides a clear view of the island's natural contours and boundaries before any modern shifts in lake levels or conservation management, serving as a primary reference for the environmental history of this offshore Michigan wilderness.
