1982 Map of Washington Island SW

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

Detroit Harbor serves as the focal point of this coastal survey, where the protected waters of Figenschau Harbor and West Harbor meet the northern reaches of Green Bay. The landscape is defined by the hazardous maritime passages of the Door Peninsula, specifically the Porte Des Morts Passage and Detroit Island Passage, which separate the mainland at Northport from a string of islands. On Plum Island, the U S Coast Guard Station stands as a critical waypoint for vessels navigating between Lake Michigan and the bay. To the south, the preservation of the shoreline is evident in the sprawling Liberty Grove State Park and the secluded Europe Lake. The map captures the island's essential infrastructure, from the High Sch and Powerplant to the local economy represented by several Gravel Pits and a Quarry near Sand Dunes Park.
