About this map

Tahquamenon River wetlands dominate this northern Michigan landscape, where the water table defines the character of the Luce County interior. The 2017 survey reveals a sparsely populated terrain focused around small junctions and essential transit corridors. Soo Junction sits at the intersection of local history and the railroad era, while the rural crossing at Mcleods Corner serves as a secondary landmark for researchers and genealogists tracing early Upper Peninsula property lines.

Hydrological networks are the defining feature of the quadrangle, with the Sage River and its tributary, the E Br Sage River, winding through the lowlands south of Frenchmans Lake. For those interested in 21st-century infrastructure, the map details the local road network, including Co Rd 393 and the Sage Tk Trl, which navigate the complex wetland boundaries and township divisions of T46N and T45N.
