How to read this map

Inflows include Saginaw River, Au Gres River, Pigeon River, Pinconning River, Rifle River and Saganing River. It lies in Michigan.

The blue outline marks Saginaw Bay as mapped by Natural Earth. Towns and cities on the map include Flint, Saginaw, Bay City and Alpena. Labeled states and countries: Michigan.

Greens show lower elevations; tan and brown show higher land, with pale tones toward the highest terrain. Shadows emphasize the slopes, and vertical relief is exaggerated so landforms are easier to read. Dashed lines show country borders, and fine dashed lines show state or province borders.

The relief uses Terrain Tiles (SRTM, GMTED2010 and ETOPO1 elevation data). Rivers, lakes, borders and the outline of Saginaw Bay come from Natural Earth, and the figures on this page from Wikidata. Natural Earth draws features at a small scale, so the outline is a guide to where Saginaw Bay is, not a surveyed boundary.
