About this map

Rapid River and its tributaries, the Little Rapid River and Spencer Creek, dominate this rural landscape north of Kalkaska during the early 21st century. The settlement of Leetsville stands as a primary point of reference in an area defined by a grid of county roads and historic community markers. Local education history is preserved through the locations of the Lannin School, Miller School, and Barber School, reflecting the distribution of small rural school districts that once served the township.

Water features like Rugg Pond and Log Lake provide significant geographic focal points, while the Westwood Cemetery and Clearwater Cemetery offer valuable data for genealogical research. The northern reaches include Mayville Lake and specialized routes such as the Ricksgers Logging Trl, indicating the intersection of recreation and the region's timber heritage. This map documents the persistent rural character of the region, where family-named roads like Zimmerman Rd NW and Redman Rd NW trace the history of local landownership.
