2019 Map of Omer

About this map

The Rifle River winds through the heart of this Arenac County landscape, carving a path between the settlements of Omer and Twining. This 2019 survey documents a rural Michigan environment defined by its extensive drainage network, including the Duck Lake Swamp and numerous engineered waterways like the Duck Lake Drain and Chief Cr Drain. These features speak to the region's agricultural management and the reclamation of low-lying lands. Local history is anchored by the Arenac Township Cem and the Huckle Bridge crossing, while a grid of established roads like Main St Rd and Townsend Rd connects scattered farmsteads across the township. The map provides a clear picture of the modern rural infrastructure and the persistent natural watercourses that have shaped the development of these small Michigan communities.
