About this map

Thunder Bay River defines the northern landscape of this Alpena County region, winding past Speckley Rapids and through the Thunder Bay State Forest. The early 1970s landscape is characterized by a transition from the river lowlands to the elevated Maple Ridge and the prominent Manning Hill. Several small settlements and rural hubs serve the area, including Long Rapids, Lachine, and Herron. Local industry and infrastructure are represented by numerous Gravel Pits, a Quarry, and the Nugent Landing Strip. The influence of early transportation is visible in the Old Railroad Grade and the Old Grade which cross the central and southern sections, while educational landmarks like Green Sch and Wilson Sch provide specific points of interest for genealogists tracing local family roots in these farming and timber communities.
