2017 Map of Mapleton

About this map

Old Mission Peninsula divides the deep blue waters of Lake Michigan in this survey of the Grand Traverse region. The settlement of Mapleton serves as a central hub for the peninsula's residents, situated among rolling terrain and a network of coastal roads like Peninsula Dr and Center Rd. To the west, the coastline is punctuated by Bowers Harbor and several prominent landforms including Tucker Point and the historically significant Neah-Ta-Wanta Point. The map also captures the opposite shore of the West Arm Grand Traverse Bay, showing the protruding Stony Point and Lee Point. For those researching local heritage, the inclusion of Ogdensburg Cem and Bowers Harbor Cem provides critical points for genealogical study within this maritime landscape.
