2017 Map of Nahma

About this map

Nahma sits at the convergence of the Sturgeon River and the northern reaches of Lake Michigan, serving as a focal point for this Upper Peninsula shoreline. The settlement pattern here is deeply tied to the water, with Indian Point to the west and Stony Point to the east framing the mouth of the river. Much of the inland territory is protected within the Hiawatha National Forest, where smaller water bodies like Marsh Lake and Boutlier Lake dot the wetlands. For genealogists and local historians, the map identifies several significant locations including the Nahma Cemetery and Indian Point Cemetery. To the south, the dramatic rise of Garden Bluff stands as a prominent landmark overlooking the Big Bay de Noc, illustrating the transition from the low-lying river delta to the higher coastal elevations that define this portion of Delta County.
