The Middle Branch Ontonagon River and East Branch Ontonagon River dominate this portion of the Ottawa National Forest, where the landscape is defined by a dense network of tributaries like Slough Cr, Champagne Cr, and Emanuel Cr. The settlements of Paynesville and North Paynesville serve as the primary hubs in this timber-rich region of Interior Township. A complex system of forest roads, including Gardner Rd and numerous numbered routes, weaves through the undulating terrain to reach landmarks like Three Rapids and Jack Pine Lake. Local history is anchored by the Paynesville Cem, situated just off the main road network, providing a touchstone for genealogical research in this remote corner of Ontonagon County.
