A Picturesque Tour of Lake Huron

May 11, 2010 4 comments

Lake Huron is one of the five Great Lakes of North America. It is bounded on the east by Ontario, Canada and on the west by Michigan, USA. The lake derives it’s name from early French explorers who named it based on the Huron people inhabiting the region. Lake Huron is the second largest of the Great Lakes, with a surface area of 59,596 km2 (23,010 sq mi) making it the third largest fresh water lake on earth.
