2019 Map of Yuma

About this map

Manistee National Forest defines this portion of the northern Michigan landscape, where the Manistee River winds through topographic landmarks like Sweets Ravine and Flower Flats. The river's course is interrupted by the Hodenpyl Dam Pond at the northern edge, while numerous tributaries including Seaton Cr, Slagle Cr, and Hinton Cr drain the surrounding timberlands. The settlement of Yuma sits on the Wexford County line, served by the Betsie Valley State Trail, which repurposed an old rail corridor. The map highlights a network of forest roads and trails, such as the N Country National Scenic Trail and the Manistee River Trail, indicating a transition from historical river-based transport to a modern focus on conservation and recreation within the expansive national forest system.
