About this map

The Straits of Mackinac and the South Channel of Lake Huron dominate the northern landscape of this coastal Cheboygan County survey. The shoreline is marked by the seasonal and year-round communities of Point Nipigon, Grand View, and Pries Landing, all linked by the corridor of Us-23. Inland, the geography transitions into a network of rural roads and watercourses, including the Little Black River and its W Br Little Black River tributary.

Evidence of local infrastructure and heritage is found in the presence of the Cheboygan County Airport and the Pine Hill Cem located near the eastern boundary. The map details a grid of township and range lines, such as t38n r2w, which organize the woodlots and clearings. Historically significant routes like Old Mackinaw Rd and Nicolet Dr trace the movement of people along this northern Michigan peninsula.
