1958 Map of Pellston

About this map

Larks Lake and the dense woodlands of the Michigan Tip-of-the-Mitt define this 1958 survey, where the Hardwood State Forest and Wilderness State Park dominate the northern landscape. Small rural communities like Bliss and Levering are connected by a network of unimproved roads and the tracks of the Pennsylvania railroad, which runs south through the village of Pellston. The presence of the State Prison Camp and the Emmet County Airport highlights the mid-century infrastructure supporting this corner of the state.
