About this map

Manistee River meanders heavily through the southern portion of this 1976 orthophotograph, showcasing the intricate Oxbow formations and dense riparian vegetation of the corridor. Unlike a traditional topographic map, this aerial survey provides a direct visual record of the land use patterns during the mid-1970s, revealing the interplay between expansive agricultural plots and the woodlots of rural Michigan. The settlement at Kaleva is clearly defined in the upper right, while the grid-like residential pattern of Brethren appears to the southeast. Near the western edge, the community of Chief Lake sits adjacent to its namesake water body, offering a clear view of the rural homesteads and farm roads that connected these communities before significant modern development altered the local landscape.
