2011 Map of Marquette NW

About this map

Lake Superior dominates the landscape in this 2011 survey of the Marquette coastline, where the cold waters of the great lake meet the rocky shores of the Upper Peninsula. Along the southern edge of the sheet, the terrain transitions from the deep waters to prominent landmarks such as Granite Point and the offshore Granite Island. The area is characterized by its significant recreational and natural conservation spaces, most notably the Little Presque Isle State Forest Campground near the mouth of Harlow Creek. Further inland, the map captures the quiet surroundings of Harlow Lake, accessed by Harlow Lake Rd just off the main artery of County Rd 550. This map provides a look at the shoreline before modern development, focusing on the preserved rocky outcrops like Little Presque Isle.
