About this map

The Au Sable River corridor in Iosco County dominates this late-twentieth-century landscape, showing a sophisticated network of hydroelectric infrastructure within the Huron National Forest. The river's course is defined by a series of impoundments including Loud Dam Pond, Five Channels Dam Pond, and Cooke Dam Pond, each supported by industrial features like the Loud Dam power plant and Five Channels Dam. This survey captures a moment when the region's economy had transitioned from timber toward recreation and energy, evidenced by the extensive snowmobile trails and picnic areas near Iargo Springs. The southern portion of the map reveals a more open landscape in Plainfield, where seasonal roads like Kokosing Road and Esmond Road cross drainage features such as Vaughn Creek and Trout Creek.
