Grand Portage Ojibwe Reservation, Minnesota, just south of the Canadian border. The surface of Lake Superior was incredibly foggy and it was hard to tell where the land ended.

Lake Superior Provincial Park in Ontario. Right on the lake shore were some really awesome pictographs, which I couldn't get a good picture of without falling into the lake. This picture was taken on a trail that went through a narrow crevice between huge rock sheets, with trees growing on the rocks above.

Manitoulin Island on Lake Huron, which has a lot of pretty farms overlooking the lake. Manitoulin is the largest freshwater island in the world, and is home to Canada's only unceded First Nations reserve (although I believe they still have to follow Canadian law, so I'm not sure how much that really means).

A sunset on Manitoulin, over an incredibly ugly field of coal or something.

Wild columbine (Aquilegia canadensis) in Tobermory, Ontario, on the shore of Lake Huron.

Lake Huron from Bruce Peninsula National Park in Ontario.

A great blue heron (Ardea herodias) on Lake Huron in Tobermory.
