2014 Map of Pelkie

About this map

Pelkie and the surrounding rural landscape in Baraga County are defined by a complex web of river systems and forest lands. The terrain is marked by Limestone Mtn rising above the winding paths of the Sturgeon River and its branches. This 2014 survey illustrates the local infrastructure, showing how small settlements like Elo and Hazel are connected by a network of named roads such as Tapiola Rd and Haataja Rd. To the south, the boundary of the Ottawa National Forest marks a transition from private holdings to managed wilderness. Genealogists and local historians can locate specific landmarks including Pelkie Cem and Alston Cem, while the detailed labeling of various creeks like Silver River and Pine Cr reveals the drainage patterns that have historically shaped agriculture and settlement in this Upper Peninsula region.
