1987 Map of Whipple Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

The Manistee National Forest defines the wooded landscape of this region during the 1980s, where the winding Middle Branch Pere Marquette River flows through the northern townships of Yates and Chase. The map documents a sparsely populated area characterized by significant water resources and small-scale resource extraction, including several Gravel Pits and a Sand Pit. Local hydrology is prominent, with numerous kettle lakes and wetlands such as Whipple Lake, Chard Lake, and Toman Lake dotting the glaciated terrain. The intersection of the Lake and Newaygo County line runs horizontally across the center of the sheet, providing a precise record of late-20th-century property and administrative boundaries in this part of Michigan. A small Cem and family-named waterways like Pease Creek and McDuffee Creek offer specific touchpoints for local genealogical research.
