About this map

The Quanicassee River flows into the southern reaches of Saginaw Bay in this 2014 survey of the Michigan shoreline. The small community of Quanicassee serves as the focal point where the river meets Lake Huron, situated at the border of Bay and Tuscola counties. The surrounding landscape is defined by the transition from coastal wetlands at Coryeon Point and Long Point to the grid-patterned agricultural fields of Gilford Township.

Transportation through the marshy lowlands is facilitated by several established routes, including Bay City-Forestville Rd and Vanderbilt Rd. Local access points such as Snug Harbor Rd suggest the area's ongoing relationship with the bay. This map captures the modern layout of rural sections and shoreline roads, documenting the persistent drainage patterns and parcel divisions that have defined this portion of the Thumb region for decades.
