2023 Map of Whitefish Point

USGS Topo · Published 2023

About this map

Whitefish Point serves as a critical maritime landmark where the expansive waters of Lake Superior meet the sheltered Whitefish Bay. This 2023 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey focuses on the thin peninsula that has historically guided sailors through the treacherous waters of the eastern Upper Peninsula. The landscape is characterized by a sparse road network, including N Whitefish Point Rd and W North Shore Rd, which service the limited coastal settlements. A quiet interior of wetlands and forest is underscored by the presence of Whispering Pines Cem, reached via W Cemetery Rd. The map illustrates the fragile interface between the land and the vast Great Lake, highlighting the geographic isolation and specific navigational importance of this point of land in Chippewa County.
