1957 Map of Northland

About this map

Northland and the rail siding at Reade anchor this survey of the dense Michigan timberlands along the border of Marquette and Dickinson counties. This mid-century landscape is defined by its vast river systems, including the complex drainage of the West Branch Escanaba and Ford River, which flow through expansive tracts of the Michigamme and Escanaba River State Forests. The C and NW RY line cuts a diagonal path through the terrain, connecting small clearings like the Education Camp and providing the primary infrastructure for the region's logging and transport economy.
