Thunder Bay Island and its smaller neighbors lie amidst the waters of Lake Huron off the coast of Alpena County. This 2023 survey provides a modern topographic record of this isolated archipelago, which includes Sugar Island and Gull Island. The map shows these landmasses defined by the Public Land Survey System grids t31n r10e and t30n r10e, marking the transition from the lake into the designated sections of Alpena. The terrain here is dominated by low-lying wetland signatures and the rocky outlines of the island chain, serving as a critical navigation point and a remote natural landscape at the edge of Thunder Bay.
