2019 Map of Hubbard Lake SW

About this map

Huron National Forest lands dominate the southern and western portions of this terrain along the Alpena and Alcona county line. The landscape is defined by a complex network of wetlands and drainage systems, most notably the Smokey Hollow Swamp in the northeast. Waterways like Wolf Cr, Little Wolf Cr, and Davis Cr carve through the wooded interior, illustrating the hydraulic character of this part of Northern Michigan. Transport across this sparsely settled area relies on a system of forest trails and rural routes, including Hubbard Lake Trl, Yellow Gate Trl, and Fruhey Ranch Rd. The survey meticulously documents the transition from the high ground of the national forest to the low-lying basins of Wildcat Cr and Cabbage Cr in the south, providing a clear view of the region's environmental composition in the early 21st century.
