About this map

The Mackinaw State Forest dominates this northern Michigan landscape, where the Black River flows through the settlement of Tower. This 1980s survey captures the region's transition from historical industrial activities to a managed wilderness. Evidence of earlier transport and utility infrastructure is preserved through the Old RR Grade and the Power House located near Tower Pond. These features illustrate the river's role in local power generation and the movement of timber or goods before the tracks were removed.
