1950 Map of Lovells

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

The North Branch Au Sable River defines the landscape of this northern Michigan territory, flowing through a region where public forest lands and private sporting retreats meet. The settlement of Lovells serves as the central hub, containing the Lovells Town Hall, the Community Chapel, and the Lovells Cemetery. This mid-century survey reveals a transition from the wilderness of the Mackinaw State Forest and Au Sable State Forest to established recreation spots like Holcomb Lodge, High Bank Lodge, and the Au Sable Trout & Gun Club. Further interest lies in the military and aviation infrastructure of the era, notably the Michigan National Guard Military Reservation (Fort Hanson) and an Emergency airfield situated near the waters of Shupac Lake. Local transport is facilitated by the Middle Branch Truck Trail and Bald Hill Truck Trail, cutting through the dense timberland and swamps.
