Baraga Township is located in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, on the coast of Lake Superior. The character of Baraga Township is reflected in its natural features -

alteration and destruction of these natural features produced far-reaching impacts, some of which can still be seen today. The Township's residents are aware of the
