About this map

Ottawa National Forest defines the landscape of Gogebic County in this 2019 survey, where the rugged terrain of the Upper Peninsula is marked by a dense network of tributaries feeding the Black River. Small settlements such as Thomaston, Connorville, and Planter are clustered along the southern portion of the quadrangle, connected by Kronberg Rd and Co Hwy 519. The geography is characterized by numerous seasonal and perennial streams including Jackson Creek, Berronger Cr, and Spikehorn Cr, which carve through the timbered hills.

Outdoor recreation and forest management are central to this area, evidenced by the extensive trail systems such as the Bergland Snowmobile #11 N (Snow) and the Bessemer Snowmobile #8 (Snow). Natural landmarks like Root Beer Falls and Gabbro Falls highlight the rapid elevation changes common in this part of Michigan, while Copper Pond and Stag Cr suggest the area's geological and industrial history.
