2011 Map of North Manitou Island OE E

About this map

Lake Michigan surrounds the eastern reaches of an isolated island landscape in this 2011 survey. The settlement of North Manitou stands as the primary human footprint on the northern shore, where local history is anchored by the North Manitou Island School and the North Manitou Island Cemetery. The map captures the meeting of land and water at points like Dimmicks Point and Donner Point, while the prominent Old Baldy Hill rises above the coastline. To the south, the treacherous North Manitou Shoals are marked by the North Manitou Shoal Light, a critical navigational aid for vessels traversing these waters. This edition provides a precise look at the island's geography following its incorporation into national protected lands, preserving the locations of its historic community structures and natural landmarks.
