2011 Map of Roy Lake

About this map

The Tahquamenon River winds through the southern edge of this Luce County landscape, where the confluence of Sixteen Creek marks a site of recreation at the Sixteen Creek Campground. This area of Michigan is defined by its complex hydrology, with numerous smaller water bodies like Roy Lake, Lynch Lake, Quintus Lake, and Coyote Lake scattered across the terrain. A network of specialized routes, including Charcoal Grade Rd, Skyline Truck Trl, and Hunters Truck Trl, facilitates movement through the dense woodlands, reflecting the region's legacy of timber management and backcountry access. In the northern reaches, Murphy Creek and its North Branch Murphy Creek provide significant drainage, while Auger Creek cuts a path toward the central lakes, illustrating the intricate natural irrigation of the Upper Peninsula.
