About this map

The Waiska River and its various branches, including the W Br Waiska River and S Br Waiska River, define the hydrology of this Chippewa County landscape. The settlement of Kinross serves as the primary population center, situated near the southeastern portion of the map where the terrain transitions toward Kinross Lake and Mud Lake. This 2019 survey shows a heavily gridded road network, likely reflecting the area's agricultural and logging history, with major routes like Co Rd 63 and W M-80 providing modern access.

Genealogists will find interest in the Rudyard Township Cem and Lakeview Cem, which anchor the local community history. The landscape is dotted with small bodies of water such as Eagle Lake and Garkinghouse Lake, set against a backdrop of creeks like Hickler Cr and McMaghen Cr. The map's detailed labeling of rural roads, such as W Strawberry Ln and W Ploegstra Rd, offers a clear view of contemporary land divisions in the Upper Peninsula.
