About this map

Hog Island dominates this maritime survey of the Beaver Island archipelago, situated within the northern waters of Lake Michigan. This 2017 study illustrates the island's low-lying coastline, marked by the sheltered waters of Fisherman Bay and the small protrusion of Horseshoe Island at its southern tip. The map captures a largely uninhabited wilderness area where land and water meet, delineated by Public Land Survey System grids including t39n r9w and t40n r9w.

Surrounding the primary landmass are smaller, isolated features such as Hat Island, Shoe Island, and Tims Island, which provide insight into the scattered geography of this remote portion of Charlevoix County. The boundary between Mackinac County and Charlevoix County is noted at the northern edge of the sheet, though the landscape remains defined by its natural topography and lack of permanent infrastructure or roads.
