About this map

Stanton serves as the focal point of this Montcalm County landscape, where the local street grid intersects with the Stanton Post Office and Forest Hill Cemetery. To the north, the small community of McBride is documented with its own McBrides Post Office and McBrides Cemetery, while Westville sits further west along the rural road network. The map reveals an area defined by agricultural parcels and a complex system of glacial kettle lakes and wetlands.

Water features are prominent throughout the southern half of the quadrangle, notably Hemmingway Lake, Colby Lake, and the connected Twin Stone Lakes. The drainage of the West Branch Fish Creek meanders through the terrain, illustrating the hydrological character of the region. Industrial activity is represented by the Stanton Oil Field, situated west of the main settlement, providing a record of the area's resource extraction history during the early 21st century.
