2011 Map of Point Detour

About this map

Point Detour reaches into the expansive waters of Lake Michigan at the southernmost edge of Delta County in this 2011 survey. This maritime landscape is defined by its coastal geography, including the northern tip of Summer Island positioned just offshore. The map emphasizes the isolation of the Garden Peninsula's tip, where the land gives way to the open lake. This specific perspective highlights the natural shoreline and navigational points that define this section of Michigan's Upper Peninsula, serving as a clean topographical record of the coast before any further development or shoreline shifts.
