1999 Map of McKeever

About this map

The East Branch Ontonagon River carves through the heart of this Upper Peninsula landscape, marking a terrain defined by heavy timber and a network of tributary creeks. Within the Ottawa National Forest, the small settlements of McKeever, Wainola, and Wasas represent the localized human footprint during the late twentieth century. Transportation and utility patterns are evidenced by the Mass Station and a Gaging Sta along the riverbanks, while the presence of the North Country National Scenic Trail winding through the southern portion highlights the region's significance for modern outdoor recreation. The map also documents local infrastructure such as the Wainola Ch and a secluded Landing Strip, providing a look at how these remote communities in Greenland and Rockland townships maintained connectivity and social centers.
