The Great Lakes and Mackinac Island are great. The reason why the lake are so deep is that 14,000 years ago glaciers carved them out. In fact, Lake Superior is considered one of the largest, deepest fresh water lakes in the world. Robert, thank you for showing my homestate off so well. I look forward to seeing next week video.

Lake Superior is the largest freshwater lake in the world by surface area. 31,000 sq miles compared to Lake Baikal with 12,000 sq miles. Lake Baikal is the longest freshwater lake at 396 miles long compared to Lake Superior at 350 miles long. Lake Superior is so much wider at 160 miles wide compared to Lake Baikal with 49 miles wide. That is why Lake Superior has almost 3 time the surface area that Lake Baikal has. Lake Michigan and Huron are also larger in area than Lake Baikal.

Lake Superior is also known to be so cold that everything that sinks in the lake never comes back up. Lake Michigan is the jewel per most people but I love lake huron. So much fun to tube and ski on Huron. Watch the white caps during storms.

My husband and I grew up in Michigan and visited Mackinac Island in the mid-60's and sat in one of the many rocking chairs on the Grand Hotel porch when it was free. We moved to Oregon in the 70's and I've watched your video of the Oregon Coast twice, and agree it is one of the most beautiful coastal trips. We went to Florence at the coast for the day a few days ago when the temperature was 90 in Eugene and it was delightfully pleasant there in the low 70's.

Stayed on island once overlooking Main St. We took Star Lines as well before, although they only ran from St. Ignace back then. Always regretted not workin there one summer when I had been offered the chance while at Michigan State Univ. One recomendation for next time, take the horse drawn carriage tour, its worth it - although can have long lines at start. Im now in Vero Beach FL, just watched your FL Keys vid, heading there soon...

I was smiling while watching you struggle going up the steep hill to the fort as I had that same struggle. I was there at the fort at just the right time to watch a reannactment. My son really enjoyed the cannons too. After visiting the fort we walked to Arch Rock and didn't have to walk up the stairs. Such a beautiful view of Lake Huron. Love the views from the fort and the Grand Hotel. Lol, we got swarmed by mosquitos entering and leaving the island. Great video Robert! Looking forward to the next video.

I do agree with you, I love to visit but, would never want to live there. Also, that was quite a walk from town all the way to Arch Rock! Last time we were on the Island, we rented bikes and rode the 8 miles all the way around. Great little quick service restaurant on the far side of the Island to break up the ride. Can't wait for the next video. As a former Michigander living in Florida, I sure miss the beauty of my home state but, don't miss the snow!

I love your videos of Michigan... Reminds me of the vacations we use to take every other summer. Had family living in Ann Arbor.

Great video! I was there as a very young child and only remember the fort, never realized how much more there was to it.

These videos are so enjoyable to follow during lockdown. Well, even though things are slowly opening back up, I'm still sticking close to home and living my travels vicariously through you, Robert! Thanks for taking me on these journeys!
