2014 Map of Wakeley Lake

About this map

The Au Sable River meanders through the central portion of this Crawford County landscape, serving as a primary geographic marker for the settlements of Babbits Resort and Stephans Bridge. This area, heavily defined by the boundaries of the Huron National Forest, shows a complex network of forest roads and trails such as Range 39 Trl and Artillery Trl, reflecting the region's managed wilderness and recreational character. Local history and genealogy are anchored by the Stephan Bridge Cem, located just north of the river crossing near N Stephan Bridge Rd. The southern portion of the map is dominated by a collection of glacial water bodies, including Wakeley Lake, Staley Lake, and Kneff Lakes, which likely served as early focal points for seasonal residency and conservation efforts within the national forest system.
