1973 Map of Roberts Corner

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

Newberry State Hospital and the outskirts of Newberry anchor the western edge of this Upper Peninsula landscape, where the cleared land of McMillan and Pentland townships gives way to the dense State Forest. The transport history of the region is deeply etched into the terrain, showing the active Soo Line rail corridor alongside vestiges of earlier industry like the Old RR Grade. To the north, the Tahquamenon River winds through the wetlands past McPhees Landing, while a network of drainage projects such as the Big Sage Ditch reveals the long-term efforts to manage the low-lying basin. From the aviation facilities at Luce County Airport to the small settlement at Roberts Corner, the map documents a mid-1970s transition point between established town centers and the wilder reaches of the Michigan backcountry.
