How to Use This Gulliver, Michigan Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Gulliver, Michigan. Use the Map and Satellite buttons above to switch between street map and aerial imagery views. Use the + and buttons to zoom in or out, or scroll your mouse wheel while holding the Control key to zoom. On a touchscreen, use a two-finger pinch gesture. Drag the map to pan to any area of Michigan or beyond.

Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill your screen. To return to the normal page view, press the Escape key, click the ✕ Exit Fullscreen button that appears above the map, or on a mobile device tap the back button (Android) or the close icon (iOS).

TOPO MAPS — NEW. Click the green 🔍 Search Maps button below the map to open a second map with a Base map row offering three choices. OSM is the standard OpenStreetMap street map. Topo shows the official USGS topographic maps from The National Map — contours, hydrography, land cover and shaded relief, the same mapping used for hiking, hunting and back-country navigation in the Adirondacks, the Catskills and the Finger Lakes. Imagery shows USGS aerial photography, mostly 1-metre NAIP. The search box finds any US town, county or landmark by name, so you are not limited to Gulliver.

Reading the map like a paper quad. Click Grid to overlay the U.S. National Grid (USNG), labelled along the edges exactly as a printed topographic sheet is — at normal zoom the squares are one kilometre across, so you can read a six-figure grid reference by eye and judge distance directly off the map. Click Measure, then tap two points, to get the distance between them together with the grid bearing in degrees and mils, the true bearing, and the magnetic bearing to set on a compass.

Click 📍 My position to take a single GPS reading from your device. It marks where you are and reports your position as a USNG grid reference as well as plain latitude and longitude — USNG being the format FEMA and US search and rescue teams work from — with a Copy position button so you can paste it straight into a text message. It takes one reading and stops, rather than tracking continuously, to conserve your battery. Note that map tiles need cell coverage, but a GPS reading does not — your coordinates stay correct even where the map itself cannot load.

About Gulliver, Michigan

Gulliver is a locality in Schoolcraft County, Michigan, United States. It is a small community with a population of 480. The population density is 5.0 people per km². Gulliver is located at 45.9930°N, 86.0121°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/Detroit) timezone. ZIP code: 49840.

Gulliver occupies a quiet expanse of the Upper Peninsula where the earth is defined by the slow, deliberate pulse of the Gulliver Lake Outlet. It lies 53.5 miles east-northeast of Escanaba, MI (from Escanaba, MI: bearing 71°T), and is situated 11.5 miles east-northeast of Manistique. The terrain around Gulliver consists of low, forested plains and dense thickets of pine that hold the damp, cool scent of a northern landscape long after the sun has retreated. Gulliver Lake acts as the center of this geography, its waters reflecting the shifting gray and bruised-plum colors of an autumn sky. To the north, the Shingleton State Forest Area offers a vast, untamed buffer of timber and scrub, while the distant, hazy silhouette of the Blue Mountains marks the horizon as a faint reminder of the geological upheaval that once shaped this quiet interior.

Labor in Gulliver has always been tethered to the timber and the soil, a legacy of the mills and logging camps that carved a life from the dense woods. The economy remains modest and grounded, favoring the rhythms of seasonal work and the steady maintenance of a landscape that does not yield easily to human ambition. History here is kept in the quietude of the roads and the way the light catches the tall, thin trunks of birch and fir, illuminating a place that exists far from the frantic pace of larger hubs. While the rush of Alger Falls is a distant memory for travelers passing through, the people of Gulliver find their own measure of time in the steady movement of the water and the persistent, unyielding growth of the surrounding forest.

About This Gulliver Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Gulliver, Michigan. Coordinates: 45.993033, -86.012069. Live weather conditions are sourced directly from the National Weather Service. Real-time local and world news feeds keep the page current.

Detailed location data for Gulliver includes the ZIP code (49840), telephone area code (906), county seat of Schoolcraft County (Manistique), and school district assignment.

Search Maps opens a second, independent map. It searches OpenStreetMap for any US town, county or landmark by name; offers USGS topographic maps and USGS aerial imagery as base layers; overlays a labelled U.S. National Grid (USNG) so the map can be read like a printed topographic quad; measures distance and grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as a USNG grid reference and as latitude and longitude. Map tiles require cell coverage, but a GPS position does not, so the coordinates remain correct even where the map cannot load.

Location data is drawn from the USGS Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) and cross-verified against 2020 US Census records by coordinate proximity. Population figures are sourced from the 2020 US Census.
