About this map

The Manistee National Forest dominates this landscape in northeastern Manistee County, where the topography is defined by the winding course of the Manistee River. The river expands significantly in the southern portion of the map to form the Tippy Dam Pond, a large reservoir containing several named landmasses including Dam Island, Fitch Island, and Government Island. This area serves as a key recreational and conservation corridor, highlighted by the passage of the N Country National Scenic Trail as it follows the river valley.

The small settlement of Marilla sits in the northeast corner, serving as a historic anchor for the surrounding township. Away from the river, the terrain rises into features like Sweets Ravine and holds smaller water bodies such as Dickson Lake and Cedar Cr. The road network, including N Coates Hwy and Marilla Rd, reveals a transition from managed forest lands to the organized plots of the Public Land Survey System.
