How to get to the West Branch Ogontz River, Michigan

No site in MDNR's access file falls on the West Branch Ogontz River, so the way in is public ground and road crossings rather than a marked landing. 1 block of public land touches the river, which is where you can stand without asking — 67,901 acres between them, counting each unit whole rather than the part beside the water. The nearest town we map is Marquette, 51.1 miles from the river's midpoint in a straight line, with the water south-east of the town.

Straight-line distance from the river's midpoint, and the direction you would travel from the town to reach it. The roads are not mapped here, so there is no drive time — a travel time nobody measured is the kind of number that gets somebody lost.

Public land on the water

Ownership from PAD-US as the state publishes it. Where a block has its own page, the name links to it.
