2023 Map of Whitefish Point OE S

About this map

Lake Superior dominates this nautical landscape, capturing the cold expanse of Whitefish Bay in Chippewa County. This maritime-focused chart highlights a precarious stretch of the Great Lakes often associated with heavy commercial shipping and the historical dangers of the northern shoreline. Only a small fragment of land appears in the upper-left corner of the sheet, where N Whitefish Point Rd provides a lifeline along the coast near the township boundary between t50n r6w and t50n r5w. The lack of inland development emphasizes the isolation of this Lake Superior reach, which remains primarily a corridor for lake freighters and seasonal travelers navigating the waters off Michigan's Upper Peninsula.
