About this map

Winslow Lake and a dense network of glacial water bodies define this portion of the Ottawa National Forest region in Michigan's Upper Peninsula. The landscape is interconnected by a complex system of forestry roads, including Federal Forest 3630 Rd and Federal Forest 3500 Rd, which provide access to secluded shorelines at Chamberlain Lake, Poker Lake, and Buddle Lake.

Flowing through the center of the sheet, the North Branch Paint River receives drainage from several major tributaries like Holmes Creek and Borski Creek. This 2011 survey captures the area's character as a managed timber and recreation landscape, where the road network is meticulously indexed to support both conservation and logging. The presence of Upper Holmes Lake and Lower Holmes Lake suggests a typical northwoods topography of kettle lakes and slow-moving river systems.
