About this map

The Huron National Forest landscape in Iosco County is defined by the managed waters of the Au Sable River valley. The sprawling Cooke Dam Pond and Foote Dam Pond dominate the northern terrain, separated by the elevated Yankee Reef. These reservoirs are part of a complex hydroelectric and recreational system that shaped the region's 20th-century development. Near the western edge of the forest, the settlement of Sid Town sits along a network of logging and access roads including Alley Rd and River Rd.

South of the main impoundments, the geography transitions into a dense drainage basin featuring Buck Creek Pond and a web of small tributaries such as Wildcat Cr, Stanton Cr, and Loud Cr. The rectilinear grid of the Public Land Survey System is still clearly visible, dictating the placement of rural corridors like Bissonette Rd and Wilber Rd as they navigate the ridges and lowlands of the forest interior.
