2017 Map of Sprinkler Lake

About this map

Huron National Forest lands dominate this northern Michigan landscape, where the headwaters of several drainages carve through the terrain south of Hubbard Lake. The hydrology is defined by the winding course of the S Br Pine River and numerous tributaries such as Vondercook Cr and McDonald Cr. Centered around Sprinkler Lake and the smaller Delap Lake, the area shows a distinct transition from forested government land to the systematic grid of rural section roads. The boundary between Alcona and Iosco counties is clearly marked near Roy Cr, illustrating the administrative divisions of the region. This 2017 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey details the contemporary road network, including remote routes like Rearing Pond Rd and F30 Rd, providing a clear view of the modern forest and watershed management patterns in the Mikado Township vicinity.
