About this map

Wolf Lake anchors the southern landscape of this 2014 survey, where suburban residential grids meet the sprawling protected woodlands of the Manistee National Forest. The geography is defined by a dense concentration of glacial kettle lakes, including Hendrickson Lake, Clear Lake, Muskrat Lake, and Baker Lake, which scatter across the northern townships. This lacustrine environment transitions into a complex riparian system where the Muskegon River and Maple River converge.

Large landforms like Maple Island and Troque Island sit within these river bends, surrounded by smaller watercourses such as Mosquito Cr and Little Cedar Cr. Local history is preserved in several burial grounds, including Johnson Cem, Saint Anthonys Cem, and Chidester Cem, which are tucked away near the boundary of Muskegon and Newaygo Counties. The map details the transition from the developed streets of Wolf Lake, like Washington Ave and Jefferson Ave, to the more rural sections of the national forest.
