1956 Map of Lake Mary

USGS Topo · Published 1957

About this map

Peavy Pond and the Michiganme River dominate this mid-century landscape in the Upper Peninsula, showing a region defined by its hydrography and timber resources. The map highlights the transition between the townships of Mansfield and Mastodon, centered on the expansive waters of Lake Mary. Civil infrastructure is concentrated near the settlement of Mansfield, where the Railroad Grade traces the path of former industrial activity through the Iron Range State Forest. Smaller settlements like Mansfield Location appear near the northern boundary, while recreational sites such as Township Park on Dawson Lake suggest the area's dual role as a site for both resource extraction and woodland leisure. The intricate network of creeks, including Davison Creek and Clarks Creek, feeds into the larger reservoir system created for hydroelectric power.
