Lake Huron

              Lake Huron (Lac Huron) is one of the five Great Lakes of North America. It is bounded on the east by the Canadian province of Ontario and on the west by the state of Michigan in the United States. By surface area, Lake Huron is the second-largest of the Great Lakes, with a surface area of 23,000 square miles (59,600 km2) making it the third-largest fresh water lake on Earth. Lake Huron is separated from Lake Michigan, which lies at the same level, by the narrow Straits of Mackinac, making them geologically and hydrologically the same body of water (sometimes called Lake Michigan-Huron). Lake Superior drains into the St. Marys River at Sault Ste. Marie which then flows southward into Lake Huron. 
              In Lake Huron lies Manitoulin Island - the largest lake island in the world. The following settlements are on the banks of Huron lake: Bay City, Alpena, Cheboygan, St. Ignace, Port Huron in Michigan; Goderich, Sarnia in Ontario.
