About this map

The Cedar River and its intricate tributaries dominate this mid-1980s landscape in Michigan's Upper Peninsula, carving through the townships of Spalding and Meyer. The waterway network, including the West Branch Cedar River and smaller flows like Pittsburg Creek and Spruce Creek, defines the drainage patterns of this heavily forested region. While residential settlement is sparse, the map documents active resource extraction through several named Rock Quarry sites situated near Nacomis Creek. Notable for its remote character, the sheet identifies isolated water bodies such as Lake No 18 and seasonal drainage including Tenmile Creek and Labre Creek. This provisional survey captured the area's topographic character just as modern digital mapping techniques were beginning to supplement traditional aerial photography.
