1983 Map of Hiram Point

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

Lake Superior State Forest dominates this northern landscape where the boundary between Delta and Schoolcraft counties meets the rugged shoreline of Lake Michigan. The interior is characterized by complex hydrology and timber-related infrastructure, featuring extensive wetlands like Bursaw Marsh and a network of small, isolated water bodies including Lake Thirteen, Halfway Lake, and Makel Lake. The presence of the Garden Grade Road suggests the historical importance of logging transport in this region, while a more curious inland feature labeled simply Goldmine hints at local mineral exploration. Along the coast, prominent landmarks like Hiram Point, Point O'Keefe, and Cole Point define the entrance to Parent Bay and Little Harbor, showing a shoreline that remained largely undeveloped and preserved within the state forest system at the time of this 1980s field check.
