About this map

Ottawa National Forest encompasses much of this Upper Peninsula landscape, where three northern Michigan counties—Houghton, Baraga, and Iron—intersect. The area is defined by a high density of glacial kettle lakes and wetlands, connected by an intricate network of forest service roads such as Federal Forest 2127 Rd and Pondizzo Rd. Notable water bodies like Marten Lake, Norway Lake, and Lake Sainte Kathryn are central features, often accompanied by smaller basins like Peck Lake and Kunze Lake.

Drainage systems including the E Br Ontonagon River and the descriptively named Dead Stream navigate the undulating terrain. A specific local landmark, Roadside Spring, sits near the junction of Upper Dam Rd, while Martin Luther King Rd provides access through the southeastern sector. The map illustrates a modern conservation landscape managed for both timber and recreation, with few permanent structures beyond the named forest roads.
