1982 Map of Rousseau

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

The Ottawa National Forest dominates this landscape in the western Upper Peninsula, where timber and transport once dictated the pace of life. A distinct Old RR Grade cuts through the forest south of Rousseau, tracing the path of former logging infrastructure that once connected remote settlements like Pori and Dishinaw. The terrain is defined by a dense network of waterways, including the West Branch Firesteel River and numerous creeks such as Hubbell Creek and Newholm Creek, which fed the region's industrial and natural needs. Local history is anchored by a small Cem near the center of the sheet and recreational markers like the Campground and Boat Landing on the shores of Bob Lake. Scattered extraction sites, including a Sand Pit and Borrow Pit, hint at the ongoing utility of the land during the early 1980s.
