Lake Basins and Standing Water Features within the Horseshoe Bay Wilderness Protected Area

The Horseshoe Bay Wilderness protects a diverse coastal landscape where standing water features and riparian wetlands interact with the shoreline of the Great Lakes. This collection focuses on the individual lake basins found within or bordering the wilderness area, providing geographic context for the hydrologic systems that support local forest ecosystems. By mapping these water bodies, we trace the post-glacial evolution of the northern Michigan terrain and its characteristic basin distribution.
