Tawas Bay: Where Timber Met the Tide

Tawas, Michigan · Iosco County · Town History

Historical views follow East Tawas and Tawas City as working communities on Saginaw Bay. The video brings together waterfront activity, local streets and public gatherings to show parts of daily life along this stretch of Michigan’s Lake Huron shore.

Ice harvesting, smelt fishing and a Main Street parade are among the subjects in this town-history episode. Its focus differs from the separate Tawas Excursions video, which examines a logging railroad used for Sunday passenger trips.
