About this map

Whitefish Lake Superior State Forest dominates the southern edge of this coastal survey, where a complex network of wetlands and small inland waters meets the southern shore of Lake Superior. The landscape is defined by its transition from the deep soundings of the Great Lake to the low-lying interior, characterized by features such as Cranberry Bogs and the shallow Marsh Lakes. This 1951 field-checked map provides detailed hydrographic data from the U. S. Lake Survey, showing the underwater contours and soundings that were critical for navigation along this stretch of the Chippewa County coastline. Inland, the map records secluded water bodies including Weatherhogs Lake and Little Lake, offering a precise look at the drainage patterns and shoreline topography of the Upper Peninsula before significant modern development altered these remote forest environments.
