1963 Map of Luzerne NW

About this map

The confluence of Michigan's iconic waterways dominates this landscape in the 1960s, where the North Branch Au Sable River and South Branch Au Sable River join the main stem of the Au Sable River. This northern Crawford County terrain is defined by the overlap of the Huron National Forest and the Camp Grayling Military Reservation, illustrating a region dedicated to both conservation and military training. Notable infrastructure for the era includes the Mason Landing Field and a Ski Lift located near the southern boundary, reflecting the area's recreational utility. River crossings such as Kelloggs Bridge and Mc Masters Bridge provide critical access points through the dense forest and marshland, including the expansive Conners Marsh. The Presence of Bald Hill and various gravel pits indicates the underlying glacial topography and local material extraction that supported the area's development.
