1982 Map of Nilemile Point

About this map

Lake Huron dominates this coastal survey, where the waters meet the northern shoreline of the Lower Peninsula at Ninemile Point. This point serves as a distinct geographical marker along the lake, located just east of Greene Creek as it empties into the lake. The map documents the boundary between Cheboygan and Presque Isle counties, cutting through the townships of Benton and Bearinger. The terrain is primarily defined by the water's edge, noted with an approximate mean lake elevation of 177 meters. Aside from the shoreline itself, the Roadside Park near the point indicates a established stop for travelers along the coastal route in the early 1980s. This transitional space between the vast lake and the wooded interior provides a clear view of the land-water relationship before further modern development altered the shoreline corridor.
