Lake Superior

Ashland, Wisconsin, USA

Something the Ojibwe Indians called Gichigami, meaning "big water", is today known as Lake Superior, the largest of the Great Lakes of North America.

What you see on the right of the picture is an ore dock built in the early 1900s and used until 1965. A railroad track led trains to the very end of this 550 meter long structure to ease in the loading of iron ore to lake freighters, which would later transport their contents via the other Great Lakes to steel mills in cities such as Cleveland or Buffalo.
