1983 Map of South Manitou Island

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

South Manitou Island rises from Lake Michigan as a complex landscape of shifting sands and maritime history within the Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore. The island's western edge is defined by massive Perched Dunes, while the protected eastern harbor is anchored by the S Manitou Lighthouse and several Docks. This 1983 survey captures the island's conservation era, showing the balance between natural features like Florence Lake and the remnants of earlier human activity. Genealogists and historians can locate the S Manitou Cem tucked away in the island's interior and trace the 10 Foot Trail across the southern terrain. Navigation hazards are noted by a documented Shipwreck off the southwest coast and an Underwater Cable Exit near Gull Point.
