The propeller-driven bulk freighter Bannockburn is seen in Kingston, Ontario, in this undated photo. The ship went missing with 20 sailors in Lake Superior during a November 1902 storm, and is among the most-sought-after Great Lakes shipwrecks. #mylakesuperior https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Djuem_SX0AA_r2S.jpg

The hills / peaks of the #Minnesota North Shore are called the Sawtooth Mountains. This view from a distance, looking southwest from near Grand Marais earlier this week, shows why it got that name #MyLakeSuperior https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Djwr6-RXsAIHjtC.jpg

One late Sept. trip to the U.P. we camped on @LakeSuperior . It was unseasonably warm, hot enough for swimming! After dark, we walked to the lakeside in time to watch a very active meteor shower over the water. #Stunning
One of my favorite memories in life. #MyLakeSuperiorby Julia Schrenkler via twitter 8/4/2018 2:33:03 PM -
