1984 Map of Washington Island

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

Washington Island dominates this mid-1980s chart of the northern Door County archipelago, where the waters of Green Bay meet Lake Michigan. The settlement of Washington and the Washington Island Landing Field serve as the hub for this maritime community, while the surrounding islands like Detroit Island and Plum Island create the complex channels of the Porte des Morts Passage. To the east across the open lake, the isolated wilderness of North Manitou Island and South Manitou Island appear as part of the Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore. These islands, including Rock Island State Park, represent a landscape defined by seasonal navigation and the preservation of coastal ecosystems. The map captures the transition from the developed Wisconsin peninsula near Northport to the remote, sand-dune-rimmed shores of the Michigan islands.
