2014 Map of Mott Island

About this map

Isle Royale National Park defines this 2014 survey, capturing the complex archipelago and maritime geography of Keweenaw County. The map details the elongated landforms of the northeast section of Isle Royale, where Greenstone Ridge forms the island's backbone. Notable for its isolation, the area features a dense concentration of islands and narrow channels, such as Middle Island Passage and the waters of Rock Harbor. Small, specifically named landforms like Cemetery Island, Mott Island, and Rabbit Island dot the coastline, while interior elevations including Mt Ojibway and Mt Saginaw rise above a landscape filled with small bodies of water like Lake Ojibway and Sumner Lake. The naming of Mine Point on Conglomerate Bay hints at the island's history of copper extraction, while the presence of Caribou Arch and Indian Head Point highlights the distinct coastal features of the Lake Superior shoreline.
