About this map

The Intermediate River system defines the geography of this Northern Michigan landscape, connecting a chain of lakes that includes Sixmile Lake, Scotts Lake, Beals Lake, and the northern reaches of Intermediate Lake. The village of Central Lake sits on the western edge of the sheet, serving as a focal point for the surrounding rural area of Pleasant Valley. The terrain is characterized by named elevations such as Echo Hills, Bunker Hill, and Dingle Hill, which rise between the numerous creek drainages like Benway Cr and Shanty Cr.

Genealogists and local historians can find significant landmarks across the townships, including the Morehouse Cem, Denismore Cem, and Flewelling Cem. Shoreline features such as Deep Water Point and Recreation Point highlight the area's long-standing relationship with its waterways, while a dense network of local roads like Dingman School Rd and Mohrmann Bridge Rd trace the paths of historical settlement and agricultural development.
