By a digital processing of Schmidt plates it is found an extended low brightness formation including the bright galaxies of the M81 group. Its dimension and shape correspond to the big cloud of gas known from the radio observations. A bridge between the south jet of the M82 galaxy and the central part of the Arp ring is found out on the plates from 2-m RC telescope. The brightness of the faintest part of the bridge is lower than 27 mB/□arcsec and its light emission is supposed to be stellar.
