Lake Michigan dominates the eastern shoreline of this coastal Michigan region, where the land meets the water along the Bay de Noc. The interior landscape is defined by the winding paths of the Bark River and South Ford River, which drain toward the Great Lake. Travelers and local residents utilize the m35 corridor as it parallels the shoreline, providing a primary connection through this Delta County township. Near the northern boundary, the South Ford River Cemetery serves as a significant landmark for those researching family history in Ford River Township. Small inland water bodies, specifically the Henderson Lakes, are clustered near the coast, reflecting the glaciated topography of the Upper Peninsula. This 2011 survey captures the balance between the open expanse of the lake and the wooded, riverine environments that characterize the local geography.
