This webinar will take you from the Sault Locks at the lake's eastern end, west along the lake's Michigan and Wisconsin southern shores, up Minnesota's northwest lakeshore, and finally along Ontario's breathtaking north and east wilderness shores before closing the circle in Whitefish Bay and the Sault.
