About this map

Sunken Lake sits at the heart of this remote Upper Peninsula landscape, where a dense network of water bodies and tributary streams defines the terrain within the Seney Township region. The hydrology is dominated by the Fox River and the West Br Fox River, which snake through low-lying marshlands and glacial depressions. This 2014 survey reveals an area largely untouched by dense settlement, characterized instead by named ponds and unique aquatic features like Section Seven Lake, Sucker Lake, and the small Duck Hole Lake.

Access to this interior wilderness is maintained primarily via Co Road 450 and Sunken Lake Rd, which provide the only significant terrestrial corridors through the forest. The map's detail provides an important record of water levels and drainage patterns, specifically around Hudson Cr and the Little Fox River, useful for understanding the environmental geography of Schoolcraft County in the early 21st century.
