Lake Superior dominates the northern landscape of this coastal survey, where the shoreline meets a complex network of wetlands and small inland water bodies in Whitefish Township. The southern half of the map reveals a low-lying environment characterized by Cranberry Bogs and the cluster of Marsh Lakes, indicating a historically boggy terrain that likely influenced early logging or agricultural efforts in the Upper Peninsula. Small, isolated lakes like Weatherhogs Lake and Little Lake are tucked away from the main shoreline, connected by a sparse network of local tracks including W Wild Cat Rd, N Doe Lake Rd, and N Moose Rd. This 2017 data reflects the modern township boundaries of T50N R6W and T50N R7W, showing how the lakefront remains largely undeveloped compared to more populated stretches of the Michigan coast.
