About this map

Negaunee serves as the focal point of this Marquette County survey, showcasing the urban layout and industrial character of this Upper Peninsula mining community. The landscape is defined by its complex water management and natural hydrology, including the Dead River Storage Basin, Teal Lake, and the winding Carp River. Notable features like Baldwin Kiln Lake and Eagle Mills highlight the region's long-standing connection to resource processing and transit.

Modern recreational and memorial land use is evident through the inclusion of the Iron Ore Heritage Trail, which traces the paths of the area's geological and industrial past. The terrain is marked by significant elevation changes, such as Rocky Ridge and Basin Ridge, while points of interest like the Upper Carp River Falls and Trestle Falls indicate the dramatic descent of the local waterways. The presence of the Northland Chapel Gardens and the Negaunee Cem provide valuable touchpoints for those researching local history and genealogy.
