I continue to paddle the inland lakes in the Traverse City area. These lakes funnel water to nearby Lake Michigan. The health of these smaller lakes impacts the health of our Great Lakes.


This week I paddled Green Lake and nearby Duck Lake. In between these lakes is Interlochen Center for the Arts and Interlochen State park. 

'Interlochen' means 'between the lakes.'



These two lakes are quite large and semi-developed along the edge. 

There is plenty of room for loons and ducks to paddle, for blue heron to fish along the edges and for turtles to paddle the depths.


Here are some photos:
