Lake Superior is a huge lake. At 82,400 sq. km (31,820 sq. mi.) it is in the top three of the world's largest freshwater lakes. The land you see as you drive the highway around Lake Superior is text book Canadian Shield. Fishing and hunting are popular in the North of Superior Region.
Thunder Bay is the largest city in the region and has Lakehead University along with historical sites such as Fort William Historical Park, a reconstructed fur trade post. Thunder Bay is also known as Little Finland; apparently sauna is the only Finnish word in the English language and we all pronounce it wrong.

Kakabeka Falls is 39 m (128 ft.) and is home to some of the world's oldest fossils - and by old, we mean 1.6 billion years.
