High Island dominates this northern Lake Michigan survey, sitting west of the larger Beaver Island in St. James Township. The landscape is characterized by a high interior ridge reaching elevations over 700 feet, which protects the small, perched Lake Maria in the island's northeast. The eastern shoreline is defined by the sheltered High Island Bay, providing a natural harbor contrasted against the more exposed western coast. The map clearly delineates the Public Land Survey System grids, including t39n r11w and t38n r11w, which mark the administrative divisions of this offshore territory within Charlevoix County.
