1973 Map of Millecoquins

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

Millecoquins Lake and the surrounding timberlands of the Upper Peninsula define this landscape in the early 1970s. The map captures a transition in transport and land use, where the Old RR Grade cuts across the northern Tahquamenon River State Forest while the Soo Line remains active further south near the settlement of Millecoquins. Local life is anchored by landmarks like Bethlehem Ch and the small cluster at Kelvey. Waterways are the primary geographical features, from the meandering Skunk Creek and Upper Millecoquins River to smaller flows like Hagler Creek and Furlong Creek. The presence of numerous Gravel Pits and a Sandpit suggests the ongoing importance of local material extraction for the development of roads such as Sandtown Road and Country Avenue. Large tracts of the Mackinac State Forest dominate the central portion of the quadrangle, reflecting the region's heavy reliance on state-managed forest resources.
