Location description: Lake Michigan is the third largest Great Lake by surface area and the sixth largest freshwater lake in the world.
Because Lake Michigan is joined to Lake Huron at the Straits of Mackinac, they are considered one lake hydrologically.
Many rivers and streams flow into Lake Michigan, and the major tributaries are the Fox-Wolf, the Grand and the Kalamazoo.
There is a diversion from the lake into the Mississippi River basin through the Illinois Waterway at the Chicago River.
Lake Michigan`s cul-de-sac formation means that water entering the lake circulates slowly and remains for a long time (retention) before it leaves the basin through the Straits of Mackinac.
The northern part of the Lake Michigan watershed is covered with forests, sparsely populated, and economically dependent on natural resources and tourism, while the southern portion is heavily populated with intensive industrial development and rich agricultural areas along the shore.
LENGTH: 307 miles / 494 km.
BREADTH: 118 miles / 190 km.
AVERAGE DEPTH: 279 ft. / 85 m
MAXIMUM DEPTH: 925 ft. / 282 m.
VOLUME: 1,180 cubic miles / 4,920 cubic km.
WATER SURFACE AREA: 22,300 sq. miles / 57,800 sq. km.
DRAINAGE BASIN AREA: 45,600 sq. miles / 118,000 sq. km.
SHORELINE LENGTH (including islands): 1,638 miles / 2,633 km.
ELEVATION: 577 ft. / 176 m.
OUTLET: Straits of Mackinac to Lake Huron
RETENTION/REPLACEMENT TIME: 99 years
NAME: Champlain called it the Grand Lac. It was later named ``Lake of the Stinking Water`` or ``Lake of the Puants,`` after the people who occupied its shores. In 1679, the lake became known as Lac des Illinois because it gave access to the country of the Indians, so named. Three years before, Allouez called it Lac St. Joseph, by which name it was often designated by early writers. Others called it Lac Dauphin. Through the further explorations of Jolliet and Marquette, the ``Lake of the Stinking Water`` received its final name of Michigan.
Another story recounts that Nicolet, the first European to set foot in Wisconsin in 1634, landed on the shores of Green Bay and was greeted by Winnebago Indians, whom the French called ``Puans.`` Lake Michigan was labeled as ``Lake of Puans`` on an early and incomplete 1670 map of the region that showed only the northern shores of the lake. However, only Green Bay is labeled as ``Baye de Puans`` (Bay of the Winnebago Indians) on maps from 1688 and 1708. On the 1688 map, Lake Michigan is called Lac des Illinois.
An Indian name for Lake Michigan was ``Michi gami.
