2019 Map of Shot Point

About this map

Lake Superior dominates this portion of the Marquette County coastline, where the waters meet the northern edge of the Upper Peninsula. The shoreline is defined by the prominent rocky projection of Shot Point, a distinctive geographic landmark that reaches into the lake. This specific coastal area, located within t47n r23w, remains largely undeveloped, characterized by the vast expanse of open water and a small segment of the mainland. Access to the shoreline is limited to Co Rd Bat, providing a specific point of reference for local-history researchers or property owners interested in the modern geography of Chocolay Township. The map provides a precise record of the shoreline contours as they existed during the 2019 survey, illustrating the simple intersection of land and lake in this quiet corner of Michigan.
