About this map

Ottawa National Forest dominates this section of Ontonagon County, revealing a landscape defined by its river systems and recreational trail networks. The Ontonagon Wild and Scenic River and its various branches, including the West Branch Ontonagon River and East Branch Ontonagon River, carve through the terrain, joined by numerous named tributaries like Bebo Creek and Mill Creek. The topography is notably marked by the Trap Hills in the western portion of the quadrangle. Local history and industry are represented by the Norwich Mine Site Trl and the nearby Norwich Cem, located in the southeastern quadrant. The map detail highlights an extensive system of forest roads and trails, such as the North Country National Scenic Trl and the Bergland Snowmobile #12 Trl, which provide access to this dense forest environment near the southern shores of Lake Superior.
