What Is Lake Michigan Triangle?

Improved Essays
Do you know that there is another mysterious triangle exists in the United States as well? The triangle that I’m speaking of is the third largest Great Lakes in the world and the only Great Lake located in the United States, “Lake Michigan Triangle.” Like the well-known Bermuda Triangle, Lake Michigan is also a place where many ships and planes mysteriously disappeared without any trace.

The triangle is believed to run from Ludington south to Benton Harbor, went across the lake to Manitowoc, and back to Ludington. The mystery of Lake Michigan began in 1891, when a schooner, Thomas Hume, sailed from Chicago to Muskegon, Michigan to pick up a load of lumber. After a long night in a torrent of wind, Thomas disappeared along with other seven sailors.
