2017 Map of West Highland

About this map

Tipsico Lake and the surrounding marshy lowlands of the Oakland-Livingston county line define this glacial landscape in the late 2010s. The map illustrates a network of small residential settlements and rural crossroads, including Rose Corners, Hallers Corners, and Hickory Ridge. For genealogists and local historians, several burial grounds are preserved across the quadrangle, such as Beebe Cem and Gardner Cem. The terrain is characterized by a high density of water bodies, from the larger Buckhorn Lake to smaller basins like Ester Lake and Handy Lake. The settlement patterns at West Highland and Hartland show the modern progression of these historically rural communities, connected by a dense grid of local roads like Denton Hill Rd and Hickory Ridge Rd.
