2014 Map of Hardwood Lake

About this map

Pigeon River flows through the center of this northern Michigan landscape, where the boundary between Cheboygan and Otsego counties meets. This 2014 survey reveals an area defined by its complex hydrology and recreational character, featuring numerous named water bodies like Cornwall Cr Flooding and the strangely named Paul Bunyan Punch Bowl. The network of trails and secondary roads, such as Chaffee Trl and Song of Morning Ranch Rd, indicates a region utilized for timber management and outdoor access. Local landmarks like Tin Shanty Bridge and the Lansing Club Pond suggest long-standing local sites. The varied terrain includes distinct features like Devils Bowl Lake and Section Four Lake, which are part of a dense system of glacial lakes and creeks that feed into the larger river systems of the Lower Peninsula.
