The Tahquamenon River winds through this Upper Peninsula landscape, passing the Lower Falls as it flows toward the remote settlements of Timberlost and Whitehouse Landing. This 2014 survey documents a region defined by its timber heritage and modern recreational use, where the N Country National Scenic Trail follows the river's edge and crosses the high ground between Water Tank Lakes and Cabin Lake. The network of roads, including the Old Logging Rd and Culhane Grade Rd, reflects the industrial history of the forest, while numerous small water bodies like Clark Lake and Camp Ten Lakes punctuate the backcountry. This map offers a detailed view of the boundary between Luce and Chippewa Counties in a period where primitive forest roads and named trails provide the primary access to the deep woods of Whitefish Township.
