2011 Map of Timberlost

About this map

The Tahquamenon River winds through this heavily forested portion of the Upper Peninsula, defining the landscape around Tahquamenon Falls State Park. The map documents the northern reaches of the river near the Lower Falls, a region historically central to the timber industry. The small settlements of Timberlost and Whitehouse Landing are situated along the riverbanks, connected by a network of logging roads and grades such as Culhane Grade Rd and Cadillac Soo Rd. These names hint at the area's transition from a logging frontier to a destination for outdoor recreation, further evidenced by Bowers Lodge and numerous small water bodies like Water Tank Lakes, Cabin Lake, and Camp Ten Lakes. The intricate maze of local tracks, including N Sawhorse Ln and Ensing Row, highlights the modern residential and seasonal development patterns in this remote Michigan wilderness.
