2023 Map of Walsh

About this map

The settlement of Walsh sits at the intersection of M 28 and the Walsh Grade in this modern survey of Schoolcraft County. The landscape is defined by extensive wetlands, primarily the Creighton Marsh, which spans much of the central and western terrain. This watery environment is drained by a complex network of named waterways including Marsh Creek, Walsh Creek, and the Driggs River on the eastern boundary. The presence of the Spur Ditch and the C-Three Pool suggests a managed hydrologic system designed to regulate water levels within the marsh. Navigation through this saturated region is largely limited to the primary highway and secondary corridors like Ecklund Rd, highlighting the dominance of the natural bog and creek systems over human development in this portion of the Upper Peninsula.
