2017 Map of Millerton

About this map

Millerton sits at the heart of this landscape, situated near the confluence of the Big Sable River and the Little Sable River in eastern Mason County. The area is heavily defined by its inclusion within the Manistee National Forest, where a dense network of forest roads like Sauble Rd and Masten Rd provides access to a glaciated terrain of kettle lakes and ridges. Notable among these are the elevations of the Ward Hills and the winding path of the N Country National Scenic Trail as it traverses the northeast. The distribution of water bodies, from the larger Ford Lake and Cunningham Lake to smaller basins like Papoose Lake and Noud Lake, indicates a geography shaped by outwash plains. This 2017 survey details a region where traditional section-line roads such as W 8 Mile Rd and E Millerton Rd intersect with the more irregular topography of the national forest.
