2011 Map of Ned Lake

About this map

Ned Lake and its surrounding wetlands form the heart of this Upper Peninsula landscape, where a complex network of waterways flows through Baraga County. The northern reaches are defined by the East Branch Net River and the Tioga River, while the southern terrain is marked by a cluster of smaller water bodies including Long Lake, Bone Lake, and Shank Lake. An interesting historical footprint is visible in the route known as The Grade, which runs north-south through the center of the sheet, likely tracing the path of an old logging railroad or industrial transport line. This artery connects various drainages such as Camp Ten Creek and the West Branch Fence River, illustrating the reliance on organized overland routes to navigate the dense hydrology of the region. Local travel is facilitated by sparse corridors like Shank Lake Rd and Bone Lake Rd, providing access to isolated features like Flanigan Slough.
