1984 Map of Howe Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

Lighthouse Island and its storied Huron Island L.H. anchor this maritime landscape along the southern coast of Lake Superior in the mid-1980s. This portion of the Huron National Wildlife Refuge includes a cluster of rocky outcroppings like McIntyre Island and Gull Island, providing a detailed look at the navigational hazards and safety measures of the Upper Peninsula shoreline. On the mainland, the Huron Mountains rise sharply from the water, characterized by high-elevation peaks such as Mount Ida. The interior is defined by a dense network of freshwater bodies, including Howe Lake and the interconnected Rush Lake. Evidence of local resource extraction is found at the Gravel Sand Pit near Huron River Point, showing the modest industrial footprint within this largely protected wilderness area.
