Lake Michigan

Lake Michigan is the second color in our fade, and the second largest of the Great Lakes by volume. It is also the largest lake by area *in a single country*. The Straits of Mackinac separate Lake Michigan from Lake Huron though they *technically* are a single lake! 

The Ojibwe name for Lake Michigan is michi-gami, meaning Great Water. 

Our Lake Michigan is a deep sapphire blue color, with hints of navy and deep sea green.
