About this map

Spruce serves as the focal point of this Alcona County landscape, situated near the intersection of E Spruce Rd and Gillard Rd. The settlement is marked by its Po and proximity to local landmarks like the Caledonia Township Cem. To the north and east, the drainage of the S Br Devils River and Butternut Cr shapes the terrain, while the southern portion of the map is defined by a dense cluster of water bodies including Badger Lake, Deer Lake, and Bear Lake.

This 2012 survey illustrates the area's mix of rural residential development and recreation, evidenced by the private road networks near the lakes and established features like the Paul Bunyan Kampground and Monarch Ridge Golf Course. The grid of section roads, such as E Scott Rd and E Swede Rd, provides the backbone for the agricultural and forested tracts that characterize this part of Northeast Michigan.
