This has been a deadly decade when it comes to drownings on the Great Lakes.

These are described as a rather unfamiliar phenomenon, but they have actually been happening often over the years.

Turtle Island in Lake Erie is a tiny acre-and-a-half of land that somehow became split between Michigan and Ohio.

The Great Lakes have their own 'Loch Ness Monster,' a creature named Bessie that torments Lake Erie.

There's an often repeated fact that there's no point in Michigan that's more than 85 miles from a Great Lake. But where exactly is that?
