Treasure ships of the Great Lakes: Your guide to over a billion dollars in gold, silver, jewelry, rare coins, and valuable cargoes aboard treasure ships in the Great Lakes

Have you visited Michigan's seven wonders?

A royal tradition dating back to 1135, sea lamprey pie was served for Queen Elizabeth II. Invasive to the Great Lakes, sea lamprey has been shipped overseas for this royal delicacy.

Thanks to a $1,000,000 donation from Meijer two new drones are helping clean up the Lake Michigan shoreline.

You'd think our lakes would be cleaner with the nickname, "The Great Lakes State". Sadly, Michigan has two lakes that are some of the most polluted in America.

Winds blow across the Great Lakes at a high intensity than anywhere else east of the Mississippi River, proving again how the lakes truly are inland seas.

Even the Coast Guard has no record of how or why it came to rest on the Black River. The Coast Guard inspected the ship to make sure that it did not pose an environmental hazard by leaking pollution.

This 70-year-old Great Lakes freighter is so popular it has its own fan club, 5000 members strong.

The incredible 209-ft yacht Scout was custom built for the couple back in 2019, and has been spotted all around Michigan this summer.

This weekend as thousands of Michiganders hit the lakes and waterways for the 4th of July weekend, they'll have company as Michigan DNR officers will be out in force to crack down on those who are boating drunk.

When life hands you beaten down cars, why not roll them down a hill and create a sea wall.

The locks close each year for 10 weeks for cleaning and repairs. This year they had to keep it open just a few hours later, so one last freighter could squeeze through.
