About this map

The Hiawatha National Forest dominates this landscape in Delta County, characterized by a complex network of wetlands and waterways. The Rapid River and Tacoosh River serve as primary drainage for the area, joined by numerous tributaries including Inman Creek, Elm Creek, and Billings Creek. This section of the Upper Peninsula is defined more by its natural hydrology and forest management than by dense settlement, with the public land boundaries of Hiawatha Nat For clearly delineated across several townships. A grid of local forest roads and connectors, such as Osier 40th Rd and E Maple Ridge 37th Rd, provides access through the timberland. Notably, the path of Old M-35 appears in the southwest, offering a window into the evolution of regional transportation routes and historical highway alignments through the Michigan woods.
