About this map

The Hiawatha National Forest dominates this 1931 survey of the Michigan Upper Peninsula, revealing a landscape defined by its wetlands and drainage networks. The eastern boundary of the forest sections off a wilderness area where numerous watercourses, including Commencement Creek, Pine Creek, and Star Creek, weave through the low-lying terrain. The human imprint on the land is concentrated along a distinct east-west corridor, where the Duluth South Shore and Atlantic railroad runs parallel to State Highway No 28. This infrastructure provides a clear link between the isolated stop at Creighton and the broader region. The presence of a prominent Transmission Line cutting across the sections further emphasizes the era's industrial expansion into the timber and bog lands of Schoolcraft County. This map captures the intricate hydrology of the Manistique River basin before modern development further altered the drainage patterns of these northern woods.
