1964 Map of Whitney Bay

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

Drummond Island's southern coastline is defined by a labyrinth of inlets and small islands in the mid-1960s, a period when this landscape remained largely part of the Munuscong State Forest. The map records the historical site of Old Fort Drummond near Detour Passage, marking an era of strategic military presence on the Great Lakes. Inland, the map shows industrial activity at a large Quarry and a nearby Cem, indicating the localized human footprint amidst the timber and wetlands. The intricate shoreline of Whitney Bay and Pigeon Cove is punctuated by family-named landmarks like Kempainen Lake and Isaacson Lake, while Township Park on the northern shore suggests the area's development for public recreation. The detailed bathymetry of Lake Huron illustrates the shallow, rock-strewn harbors that shaped local maritime navigation.
