About this map

The Ottawa National Forest dominates this section of the western Upper Peninsula, where the landscape is defined by the complex hydrology of the Presque Isle River and the Little Presque Isle River. The topography is marked by significant elevations like Wolf Mtn, situated north of the historic settlements of Hartley and Dunham. These small communities, once tied to the region's timber and mining industries, sit along the path of Us HWY 2.

Transport and access are dictated by a network of forest roads and historic routes, including Morgan Mine Rd and Great Lake Station Rd. Numerous small waterways such as Emperor Cr, Jackson Cr, and Monarch Cr drain the highland terrain, illustrating the dense natural drainage system characteristic of Gogebic County. The map provides a clear look at the township and range divisions, specifically t47n r44w and t46n r44w, which have shaped land ownership and forestry management in this part of Michigan.
