About this map

Harlan serves as a central point in this northern Michigan landscape, situated along the border of Manistee and Wexford counties. The settlement is defined by its small-town footprint and proximity to the Betsie Valley State Trail, which cuts diagonally across the township. For genealogists, the map identifies several distinct burial sites, including the Harlan Cem, the Crowell Family Cem located off W 8 Rd, and the Minor Cem to the south.

The southern portion of the quadrangle is dominated by the northern reaches of the Manistee National Forest, where the terrain drops toward the waters of Hodenpyl Dam Pond. This area is marked by a network of forest roads and trails, such as Benton Rd and Thirteen Mile Rd. Notable water features include the winding Fletcher Cr and the secluded Ball Pond, while the curiously named Sneaky Valley sits in the eastern hills near N 7 Rd.
