I drove the northern edge of Lake Superior on my way to catch the ferry to Isle Royale this May. 
Ontario's side of Lake Superior is rocky and wild.
I took some short hikes to explore.

Lake Superior Provincial Park protects almost 600 square miles on the eastern edge of the lake.


Rock wall rises

This park has some art from the Ojibwe people on a rock wall [Agawa Rock] along the lake edge.
