2023 Map of Perkins

About this map

The Tacoosh River and Days River drainage systems define this section of Delta County, where small settlements like Perkins and Brampton line the corridor of Old State Hwy 35. The landscape is heavily influenced by the presence of the Hiawatha National Forest, which covers much of the eastern and central terrain. Genealogical interest is centered on the Perkins Cem and the clusters of small, rural hamlets such as Beaver, Winde, and Chaison that have long served as local centers for this timber-rich region. To the southeast, the terrain reaches the shoreline of Little Bay de Noc at Kipling. The map details the transition from forested tracts to the more developed coastal and riverside areas, including the recreational Days River Pathway winding through the southern woods.
