1986 Map of High Island
USGS Topo · Published 1986About this map
High Island emerges from the waters of Lake Michigan in this mid-1980s provisional survey of northern Lake Michigan. Located within St James Twp in Charlevoix County, the island's interior is largely preserved as part of the Mackinaw State Forest. The geography is defined by a central inland water body, Lake Maria, and a coastline that transitions from the sheltered High Island Bay on the eastern shore to more exposed sandy stretches on the west. This mapping reflects the island's status as a protected wilderness area, showing the lack of modern development and the dominance of natural forest and shoreline features during this era of conservation management.
