2023 Map of Palmer
USGS Topo · Published 2023About this map
The Empire Mine operations dominate the western landscape of this Marquette County survey, illustrating the scale of iron ore extraction in the Upper Peninsula. Centered on the community of Palmer, the map details a complex network of industrial roads like Empire Mine Rd and Tracy Mine Rd that navigate the varied elevations between Kona Hills and Wewe Hills. Local civic life is anchored by the Palmer Ch and Palmer Sch, while the northern edge of the sheet captures the southern outskirts of Negaunee, including the Negaunee Cem. The region's hydrography is defined by substantial bodies of water such as Lake Gribben and Goose Lake, with the East Branch Escanaba River winding through the southern reaches. Numerous cascades, including Warner Falls and Schweitzer Falls, emphasize the steep grades of the regional drainage basins.
