1999 Map of Tula

About this map

The Presque Isle River winds through this heavily forested section of the Upper Peninsula, carving a path through the Ottawa National Forest. This late-century survey captures a landscape defined by its waterways and timber-access routes, showing the prominent Minnewawa Falls and Nonesuch Falls along the river's course. Small settlements and transit points like Tula and Jack Spur are situated along the main transportation corridor, reflecting the area's history of logging and rail-linked industry. The map illustrates the transition from the Bessemer Bergland District to the surrounding wilderness, marked by a network of forest roads such as Tower Road and Underwood Road. Numerous small water bodies, including Bass Lake and Cherry Creek, drain the interior, while scattered Gravel Pits suggest ongoing resource extraction near the river valley.
