Located on the extreme western end of Chippewa County is Hulbert Township, a 72-square mile municipality and home to Hulbert Lake. Nearly half of the Township’s area is owned by the State of Michigan as part of Lake Superior State Forest. It is no surprise that fishing streams, wildlife and scenic wild lands play a big role in Hulbert Township’s economy. The Township was once an important lumber distribution center, but while it’s not as central as it once was, the timber industry is still part of Hulbert’s economy. Hulbert Township is traversed by the important east-west transportation corridor of M-28. It is also home to the unincorporated community of Hulbert.
