1999 Map of Tiebel Creek

About this map

The Presque Isle River carves a dramatic path through the western edge of the Porcupine Mountains State Park before emptying into the cold waters of Lake Superior. This late-twentieth-century landscape is defined by its water features, specifically a dense concentration of cascades near the coast including Manabezho Falls, Manido Falls, and Nawadaha Falls. Further south, the river winds through the Ottawa National Forest, where additional named drops like Lepisto Falls and Nokomis Falls mark the descent toward the lake. The topography is rugged, shaped by the Porcupine Mountains and numerous tributaries such as Tiebel Creek and Speaker Creek. Human presence is minimal, largely confined to the Presque Isle Campground and the South Boundary Road, reflecting a region dedicated to conservation and the preservation of its waterfalls.
