1985 Map of Laughing Fish Point

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

Laughing Fish Point juts into the cold waters of Lake Superior in this mid-1980s provisional survey of the Michigan shoreline. The landscape is defined by the winding course of the Laughing Whitefish River, which cuts through the Escanaba River State Forest before emptying into the lake. This map captures a largely recreational and conservation-focused era in Onota township, where the presence of the Laughing Whitefish Campground and the John H Hammer Public Access indicates the local importance of seasonal tourism and water access. The topography is documented in metric intervals, reflecting a specific period of cartographic transition for the Geological Survey as it moved toward modern manuscript drawings.
