1955 Map of Hog Island

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

The remote archipelago of northeastern Lake Michigan is captured here in the mid-1950s, centered on the wooded expanses of Hog Island and Garden Island. Much of the land is designated as part of the Pigeon River State Forest, showing a landscape defined more by its natural harbors and dangerous shoals than by human settlement. The map detail highlights the complex shoreline and surrounding hazards, from the expansive Mille Coquins Reefs in the north to the smaller satellites like Hat Island, Shoe Island, and Pismire Island to the south and east.
