No navigable network or chain of lakes in Michigan (or anywhere else) rivals the Inland Waterway for breadth, variety and historical significance. By use of only two locks, a boat can travel from Conway (just east of Petoskey) all the way to Cheboygan and Lake Huron, or south to Alverno Dam on Black Lake. This map includes the entire waterway, including Crooked, Pickerel, Burt, Mullett and Black Lakes, and the Crooked, Indian, Cheboygan and Black Rivers. The shore towns of Conway, Alanson, Indian River, Topinabee and Cheboygan all appear on this map.
Please note, this map includes additional details and lake depths for Douglas Lake and Lake Paradise that are not included on the 24″ x 18″ version. This is truly one of my favorite maps. I still treasure fond memories of my father racing his hydroplane, The Ruptured Duck through the Inland Waterway in the environmentally-speaking bad old days of the early 1950s before I was born. His many trophies occupied a basement storage shelf in my youth.
