About this map

The Huron Mountains dominate this Upper Peninsula landscape, where high peaks like Ives Hill and Mt Ives overlook a complex network of glacial lakes and river systems. The Salmon Trout River winds through the center of the sheet, punctuated by several cascades including Eighty Foot Falls, Upper Falls, and Middle Falls. This 2014 survey documents a territory defined by its water resources, from the shoreline of Lake Superior at Salmon Trout Bay to the secluded Ives Lake and Conway Lake.

Settlement is sparse, represented by small clusters at Gillet Landing and Dodge City. The terrain is marked by distinctive local landmarks like the Mummy Mtn and Breakfast Roll, while a few essential routes such as Ives Lake Rd and Northwestern Rd provide access through the dense topography. The map also records several family-named or local landmarks, such as Dutch Johns Pond and the winding Snake Cr.
