1951 Map of Hulbert

About this map

The Mackinac State Forest dominates this section of the Upper Peninsula, where the timber and rail economy of the early 1950s is etched into the landscape. The settlement of Hulbert serves as the primary hub, situated along the corridor of the Duluth South Shore and Atlantic railroad. This line cuts a straight path through the low-lying wetlands, crossing the Hendrie River and providing the essential transportation link for this forested interior.
