About this map

Hiawatha National Forest dominates this coastal landscape along the southern edge of Whitefish Bay. The terrain is defined by a series of drainages flowing north toward Lake Superior, including Pendills Creek, Grant Cr, and Ladd Cr. These waterways create a complex hydrology of coastal wetlands and inland basins, such as Pendills Lake and the smaller Avery Lake.

Recreational and natural preservation is evident through the inclusion of the N Country National Scenic Trail, which winds through the southwestern interior. The shoreline is punctuated by Salt Point and Pendills Bay, marking a transition from the deep waters of the Great Lakes to the forested highlands. This survey documents the area's geography as it appeared in the early 21st century, focusing on the preservation of these Upper Peninsula ecosystems.
