2017 Map of Juniper

About this map

Hiawatha National Forest dominates this section of Michigan's Upper Peninsula, where the landscape is defined by a dense network of wetlands and feeder streams. Small settlements such as Juniper, Doty, and Evelyn sit along the northern corridors, marking points of human activity amidst the wooded terrain. The hydrography of the region is particularly complex, characterized by the winding paths of North Branch Stutts Creek, Middle Br Stutts Cr, and the Little Indian River. Extensive wetland features like Scotts Marsh and Garvey Ponds illustrate the low-lying, water-saturated nature of the area. This 2017 survey also documents the county boundary separating Alger and Schoolcraft counties, showing how administrative lines cut through the wilderness and across the Beaver Cr drainage basin.
