2023 Map of Rock River

About this map

Hemlock Bluff and the shores of Lake Superior define this section of the Upper Peninsula, where the landscape is largely protected by the Hiawatha National Forest. This modern survey reveals a dense network of water and wilderness, including the Rock River Canyon Wilderness and the tucked-away Rock River Falls. For those tracing local heritage, Trudell's Graves remains a distinct point of interest near Shelter Bay. The map documents the modern intersection of recreational access and conservation, featuring the North Country National Scenic Trl alongside snowmobile paths like the N Hiawatha Snomo Trl. From the offshore Au Train Island to the interior drainage of Silver Creek and Ginpole Lake, the area maintains its character as a remote wilderness corridor in Alger County.
