2014 Map of Lake Margrethe

About this map

Lake Margrethe serves as the focal point of this recreational and military landscape on the border of Kalkaska and Crawford counties. The shoreline is dotted with established access points such as McIntyre Landing, Danish Landing, and Collens Landing, while the settlement of Rasmus sits just to the south. The northern reaches are defined by the winding course of the Manistee River, which flows through a network of trails including Tower Trl and Softwood Trl. To the east, the Au Sable River cuts through the terrain near the United States Government Military Cem. The topography is marked by several prominent rises, including Thompson Hill, Argonne Hill, and the Copper Range, reflecting the glacial heritage of the Northern Lower Peninsula.
