1968 Map of Muskallonge Lake SW

About this map

The Lake Superior State Forest dominates this landscape in Luce County, Michigan, defined by the intricate hydrological network of the Upper Peninsula. At the heart of this 1968 survey are the multiple tributaries of the famed Two Hearted River system, including the North Branch, West Branch, and South Branch. These waterways wind through dense wetlands and timberland, feeding into numerous backcountry basins like Evergreen Lake, Ladue Lake, and the Two Hearted Lakes. Primitive transportation routes such as the Camp Ohio Road and various Jeep Trails provide the only access to these secluded interior woods. Recreational activity is concentrated near Holland Lake, where the West Lookout Tower Campground offers a base for exploring the surrounding Beaverhouse Lakes and North Branch Lakes. The map reveals a wild, swampy terrain where small streams like Dairy Creek and South Creek drain into the primary river branches.
