1976 Map of Wellston NW

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

Wellston and its surrounding northern Michigan woodlands are captured in this mid-1970s orthophoto, a transitional mapping style that overlays precise survey data onto actual aerial imagery. The settlement patterns in this corner of Manistee County reflect a landscape of scattered clearings and dense reforestation, with the meandering eastern shore of Tippy Dam Pond dominating the northeastern quadrant. The imagery clearly distinguishes between evergreen stands and deciduous growth, providing an unfiltered view of the terrain around Dublin and Irons as it existed before decades of modern development. Because this is an orthophotoquad, researchers can see the literal footprint of the era's land use, from the precise grid of forest roads to the individual structures that comprised these rural communities.
