The southern tip of the Garden Peninsula and the nearby Summer Island mark the transition between Big Bay de Noc and the open waters of Lake Michigan. This 2019 survey captures the maritime landscape of Fairbanks Township, where Point Detour projects into the lake. The map reveals the intricate shoreline of the peninsula's extremity, highlighting the relationship between these remote landmasses and the surrounding Great Lake. While mostly characterized by open water, the sheet provides precise topographic and hydrographic details for these essential coastal points, making it a valuable resource for understanding the contemporary geography of this northern Michigan archipelago.
