1955 Map of Starlake

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

Ottawa National Forest dominates the northern reaches of this mid-century landscape, where the state boundary between Michigan and Wisconsin cuts through a dense network of glacial lakes. The settlement of Starlake sits at the southern edge of its namesake water body, while Conover serves as a small hub to the southeast. This survey, based on 1952 aerial photography and 1955 field checks, illustrates a region defined by recreational and conservation land use. Cultural landmarks like the Covenant Ch and the Oak O' Lakes Cem are recorded alongside natural features such as Siphon Springs and Garland Springs. Notable for local historians is the Indian Cem located near the shores of Lac du Lune, reflecting the long-standing indigenous presence in this lake-studded territory. The presence of a Lookout Tower near Tower Lake highlights the era's focus on forest fire management within these timbered lands.
