Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore is located in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan along the southern shore of Lake Superior. The park spans approximately 300 km2 and is almost fully incorporated within the ten 7.5-minute quadrangles presented in this new, detailed surficial geology map. The western quadrangles are mainly characterized by thin accumulations of undifferentiated Quaternary sediment above shallow bedrock while the eastern quadrangles mostly show thick accumulations of various glacial outwash units.
