About this map

Ozark and the surrounding timberlands of the Hiawatha and Mackinac State Forest define this 1964 survey of the Upper Peninsula, later revised with 1975 aerial data. The landscape is a network of small water bodies and wetlands, including Schlehubers Marsh, Boaz Lake, and the winding Pine River. Industrial and logistical traces are scattered throughout, from the Soo Line tracks to various Gravel Pits and a Quarry near the settlement.

Evidence of local community life appears at the Brethren Ch and Brethren Cem south of the forest boundary. For those tracking the management of these woods, the Trout Lake Lookout Tower and a nearby Landing Strip indicate the area's role in fire prevention and forest services. The presence of Dick Campground near Pine Creek suggests the enduring recreational value of these northern woods during the mid-20th century.
