About this map

Lake Michigan dominates the western shoreline of this 1930s-era survey, where the rugged coastal geography of Mackinac County is defined by the sweeping curve of Pte Aux Chenes Bay and the prominent point at Pte Aux Chenes. The interior landscape reveals a network of waterways and early transit routes, featuring the large expanse of Brevoort Lake and its connection through the winding Brevoort River toward the Great Lake. Local travelers in this period relied on paths such as Old Peter Road and the White Trail to navigate the forested stretches between Round Lake and the coast. Published as an advance sheet, this map provides a precise record of the shoreline and hydrology before later development, showing the area as it was when the Moran township region remained largely defined by its natural water features and primary woods roads.
