"Those who have never seen Superior get an inadequate idea by hearing it spoken of as a lake; Superior is a sea; It breeds storms and rain and fog like a sea. It is cold, masterful, and dreaded." - Rev. George Grant, 1872 [OC][2830x3538]

I’m lucky enough to work along the lakeshore of Lake Michigan daily. I have also worked along the Lake Huron shoreline and lived in the Keweenaw , a peninsula in Lake Superior. Lake Superior is just breathtaking though. Better rock hunting on the shores of Superior too!

It’s a beautiful photo. Lake Superior is a moody one.

Grandpa spent decades at sea, went basically everywhere, said the worst water he'd ever seen was on Superior. Genuinely scared him.
