About this map

Northland and Reade sit within a landscape of river systems and forest roads near the boundary of Dickinson and Marquette Counties. This upper peninsula terrain is defined by the Little W Br Escanaba River in the north and the Ford River to the south, which is fed by tributaries including Tom Doe Cr and Effie Cr.

Local history is anchored by the Riverview Cem west of Northland, while the area's layout is shaped by a grid of rural routes such as Ross Grd Rd and Leighton Rd. The map illustrates a contemporary view of these established small communities and their relationship to the surrounding timberlands and waterways, providing a clear record of the road network including Ford River Rd and Co Rd 426 as they serve the remote settlements of West Branch Township.
