About this map

Stalwart serves as the primary focal point of this Eastern Upper Peninsula survey, located where the East Branch Munuscong River begins its winding course through the landscape. The community structure is defined by civic landmarks such as the Stalwart Post Office, the Stalwart Cemetery, and the local Stalwart Fair Ground, suggesting a long-standing rural gathering point for Mackinac County residents. The terrain transition is marked by localized elevations including Birch Hill and Hungry Hill, which rise above a low-lying network of water bodies and marshy drainages.

Water features dominate the southern and eastern portions of the map, where the headwaters of Beaver Tail Creek and Trout Cr emerge. Smaller basins like Covach Lake, McAdams Lake, and Sam Taylor Lake are dispersed throughout the region, often accessed by a grid of rural roads like S Prentiss Bay Rd and E Traynor Rd. This area illustrates a typical Michigan wilderness-agricultural balance, with established family names preserved in the local road and lake nomenclature.
