In the news: Frigid temps bring wintery scenes back to Lake Michigan

Posted February 12th, 2013 in Healthy Waters

Low temperatures and more characteristic winter weather have turned parts of Lake Michigan into a frozen lunar landscape – perfect for some chilly but scenic photography.

From Michigan Live:

“What a difference one year can make.

Last year Lake Michigan was nearly ice-free. But cold weather in 2013 has brought a return to the ice formations typical to West Michigan’s winter shoreline.”

Visit the link above for a great gallery of scenic shots from the frozen lakefront.

What does it mean to be Great Lakes literate?

It’s understanding how the Great Lakes shape your life and how your choices impact the lakes.

To be Great Lakes literate is to understand, communicate, and care for these special freshwater resources. 💙
