About this map

The Ford River and its northern branch dominate this Upper Peninsula landscape, where water drainage patterns dictate the layout of the local timber and hunting roads. Near the southeastern corner, the small settlement of Turner serves as the primary landmark, situated at the junction of Turner RD and Hintz RD. The terrain is defined by a dense network of tributaries including Twomile Cr, Webber Creek, and McGregor Cr, which cut through the forested interior. Historical land use is evidenced by descriptive road names such as Big Wheels Rd and Big Stump Trl, hinting at the region's logging heritage. The boundary between Marquette and Dickinson Counties runs across the northern edge of the map, marking a transition in local jurisdiction across this largely uninhabited wilderness.
