About this map

Lake Superior dominates the northern expanse of this coastal Michigan quadrangle, meeting the shoreline at the prominent Laughing Fish Point. The landscape is defined by its relationship with the water, where the Laughing Whitefish River flows toward the lake near the Laughing Whitefish Campground. This 2011 survey captures a quiet, wooded stretch of the Upper Peninsula, characterized by a sparse network of access routes including County Hwy 483 and several unpaved paths such as Mallette Point Trl and Grosbeak Trl.

The coastal geography includes the John H Hammer Public Access, a key point for those navigating the waters of the south shore. Inland, roads like Lake Superior Point Rd suggest the localized development typical of this remote region. The map provides a precise record of the shoreline and drainage patterns as they existed in the early 21st century, serving as a primary reference for the topography of Onota Township.
