2017 Map of Ozark SE

About this map

Hiawatha National Forest dominates this section of the Upper Peninsula, defining a landscape shaped by a complex network of waterways and glacial drainage. The Carp River and its numerous tributaries, including the Br Carp River and Little Carp River, wind through the township, interspersed with localized basins such as East Lake, Spring Lake, and Paquin Lake. This 2017 survey reveals the preservation of public lands, where traditional forest management and conservation intersect with modern recreational infrastructure. A notable segment of the N Country National Scenic Trail traverses the northern terrain, following the subtle elevation changes of the Upper Carp Hill Cr and Lower Carp Hill Cr drainages. The abundance of features like Beaver Pond and Flat Cr suggests a persistent wetland environment that continues to dictate the local road and trail network.
