Hillman serves as the primary hub of this 1950s survey, situated along the Thunder Bay River near its confluence with Brush Creek. The landscape is a mix of state-managed forest lands, including Black Lake State Forest and Alpena State Forest, and a dense network of early rural schools like Babcock Sch and Cedar Sch. The topography reveals the region's agricultural and timber history, with an abandoned Railroad Grade cutting across the eastern portion of the map, signaling the transition from large-scale logging to a more settled rural economy.
