1984 Map of Ives Hill

About this map

Huron Mountains peaks dominate the northern Michigan landscape in this 1980s-era study of Marquette County. The map details a complex hydrological network where the Salmon Trout River and its multiple branches descend through a series of dramatic elevation drops, marked by Upper Falls, Middle Falls, and Lower Falls. To the north, the terrain meets the rugged shoreline of Lake Superior at Salmon Trout Bay and Gillet Landing. Inland, the settlement of Dodge City sits near the southern boundary, while the Escanaba River flows through the southern portion of the quadrangle within a designated State Forest. Notable topographical features like Mummy Mountain, Mount Ives, and the curiously named Breakfast Roll provide clear landmarks for researchers and historians tracking the physical geography of the Powell and Champion regions.
