2016 Map of Washington Island SW

About this map

Detroit Harbor and the southern reaches of Washington Island anchor this coastal study of the dangerous waters where Green Bay meets Lake Michigan. The map details the intricate shoreline of the Porte des Morts passage, a maritime gateway flanked by Plum Island and Detroit Island. On the mainland at the Door Peninsula tip, the settlement of Northport stands near the secluded Europe Lake and Europe Bay. Nautical features including Middle Shoal, Waverly Shoal, and the lonely Pilot Island underscore the area's maritime hazards. Land use is characterized by a network of island roads such as Michigan Rd and Detroit Harbor Rd connecting local points like Gislason Beach and Richters Point, reflecting the settled character of this isolated island community.
