About this map

The Au Sable River corridor defines this landscape in eastern Michigan, where the waters are harnessed for hydroelectric power at the Cooke Powerplant. This 1989 edition shows the wide expanse of Cooke Pond created by the dam, providing a central recreational hub surrounded by the Au Sable State Forest and Huron National Forest. The settlement of Sid Town is situated on the southern bank of the reservoir, while further south, the Wilber Ch stands as a local landmark near the Iosco County boundary.

A network of recreational paths and waterways characterizes the region, including the Snowmobile Trail and a series of creeks such as Wildcat Creek and Loud Creek. Public land usage is evident through features like the Monument Campground and the Lambertsons Mon Visitor Center. The terrain is marked by industrial and agricultural history, visible in the Gravel Pits and various access roads like Bissonette Road and Monument Road.
