About this map

Rockhouse Point defines this coastal stretch of Michigan’s Upper Peninsula, where the land meets the cold expanse of Lake Superior. This 1978 orthophotoquad represents a specialized mapping approach, layering traditional land survey lines over a high-altitude aerial photograph taken on October 28th of that year. The resulting imagery reveals the texture of the forest and the rhythmic curve of the shoreline in Houghton County, showing the intersection of Township and Range boundaries with the natural terrain. While the interior is sparsely labeled, the map provides a clear look at the undeveloped lakefront and the drainage patterns moving toward the water, providing a baseline for the region's environmental and forest history in the late 1970s.
