About this map

The Manistee River carves a serpentine path through this 2012 survey, defining the landscape of Norman Township and the surrounding forest lands. To the north, the impounded waters of Hodenpyl Dam Pond dominate the terrain, supported by recreational landmarks such as the Seaton Creek Campground and the Hodenpyl Overlook. The settlement of Yuma sits near the eastern boundary, accompanied by the Yuma Cemetery and nearby Section 16 Cemetery, which provide valuable location data for genealogists tracking local families in this corner of Manistee County.

Transport and navigation are marked by a transition from traditional river crossings to modern infrastructure, seen at Red Bridge and the Red Bridge Public Access point. Away from the water, the map identifies small-scale aviation at Bunch's Half Acre Airport and various creek drainages including Slagle Creek and Hinton Creek. This era reflects a landscape deeply tied to outdoor recreation and forest management, illustrated by features like the Red Bridge Lookout Tower and the Manila Trailhead.
