Download or read book The Lake Michigan Triangle written by Gayle Soucek and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2022-08-29 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What disturbing secrets surround the cold, deep waters of Lake Michigan? Sudden violent storms and rocky shoals have claimed the lives of countless mortals foolish enough to brave the treacherous surf of Lake Michigan. But is there another, unnatural force at work? A force that spirited away a ship's captain from a locked cabin without a trace? A force that caused a perfectly airworthy jet to fly into the waves, taking all its passengers to a watery death? Perhaps these tragedies are linked to numerous UFO sightings over the lake. Or perhaps a clue might be found in the prehistoric Stonehenge-like structures discovered deep beneath the crystalline blue surface. Historian and storyteller Gayle Soucek will explore the mysteries behind the area known as the Lake Michigan Triangle.

Download or read book Gateway to Oblivion the Great Lakes Bermuda Triangle written by Hugh F. Cochrane and published by . This book was released on 1980-07 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is a strange place, where weird fogs and globes of light abound, and where ominous waters shroud sinister happenings. It is an enigma featuring a long history of disasters, which have drained insurance companies of millions of dollars in claims. In the past two centuries, literally thousands of ships and airplanes have been lost under mysterious circumstances around the Marysburgh vortex, a twilight zone at the eastern end of Lake Ontario. The internationally regarded author and paranormal investigator, Hugh Cochrane, believes the Marysburgh vortex to be one of fourteen "gateways to oblivion" scattered across the globe. His well-researched investigation of this "Canadian Bermuda Triangle" presents documented evidence of unexplained disappearances, UFO sightings, strange electromagnetic disturbances, and other inexplicable phenomena. Cochrane's unsettling account of these events, which defy satisfactory orthodox explanation, is a provocative challenge to the authorities who refuse to discuss the matter openly.

Download or read book Peatlands of Ohio and the Southern Great Lakes Region written by Guy L. Denny and published by Kent State University Press. This book was released on 2021-12-14 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Exploring and appreciating the fascinating ecosystems of bogs and fens Peatlands--and specifically "bogs"--have long been a source of fascination for humans, and these amazing places are truly living relics of the Ice Age. More recently, bogs have come to be regarded as complex and fascinating wetland ecosystems. Peatlands of Ohio and the Southern Great Lakes Region focuses on the sphagnum peat bogs and rich fens of the lower Great Lakes states of Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, southern Michigan, and the glaciated northern corners of Pennsylvania. The peatlands of today are products of the Wisconsinan Glaciation, when peatland plants originating in northern latitudes migrated southward in a wide band preceding the glacial wall of ice. After thousands of years, the glacier's retreat severely diminished the sites with the very special environmental conditions needed to sustain these ecosystems. However, in a few sites, kettlehole lakes and cold alkaline hillside seeps and springs enabled remnants of peatland vegetation to survive to this day. Guy L. Denny, with accompanying photographs by Gary Meszaros, closely examines this habitat and its special environmental constraints, the geological and climatological origins, and the flora and fauna unique to the bogs and rich fens of this region. As readers will discover as they learn about places like Cranberry Bog in Michigan or Triangle Lake in Ohio, kettlehole sphagnum peat bogs and rich fens are not only essential places to protect, but they are amazing sites to explore, discover new plants, and observe the beauty and splendor of the natural world.

Download or read book Shipwrecks Monsters and Mysteries of the Great Lakes written by Ed Butts and published by Tundra Books. This book was released on 2011-01-11 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1679, a French ship called the Griffon left Green Bay on Lake Michigan, bound for Niagara with a cargo of furs. Neither the Griffon nor the five-man crew was ever seen again. Though the Griffon’s fate remains a mystery, its disappearance was probably the result of the first shipwreck on a Great Lake. Since then, more than six thousand vessels, large and small, have met tragic ends on the Great Lakes. For many years, saltwater mariners scoffed at the freshwater sailors of the Great Lakes, “puddles” compared to the vast oceans. But those who actually worked on the Great Lakes ships knew differently. Shoals and reefs, uncharted rocks, and sandbars could snare a ship or rip open a hull. Unpredictable winds could capsize a vessel at any moment. A ship caught in a storm had much less room to maneuver than did one at sea. The wreckage of ships and the bones of the people who sail them litter the bottoms of the five lakes: Ontario, Erie, Huron, Michigan, and Superior. Ed Butts has gathered stories and lake lore in this fascinating, frightening volume. For anyone living on the shores of the Great Lakes, these tales will inspire a new interest and respect for their storied past.

Book excerpt: Submerged stories from the inland seas The newest addition to Globe Pequot’s Shipwrecks series covers the sensational wrecks and maritime disasters from each of the five Great Lakes. It is estimated that over 30,000 sailors have lost their lives in Great Lakes wrecks. For many, these icy, inland seas have become their final resting place, but their last moments live on as a part of maritime history. The tales, all true and well-documented, feature some of the most notable tragedies on each of the lakes. Included in many of these tales are legends of ghost ship sighting, ghostly shipwreck victims still struggling to get to shore, and other chilling lore. Sailors are a superstitious group, and the stories are sprinkled with omens and maritime protocols that guide decisions made on the water.
