Kitch-iti-kipi

Kitch-iti-kipi means "Big Cold Water" and is the Native American name for Michigan's largest freshwater spring. The spring is in Michigan's Upper Peninsula near Manistique and Lake Michigan and is part of Palm Book State Park. The spring is an oval pool measuring 300 by 175 feet (91 m × 53 m) and is about 40 feet (12 m) deep with an emerald green bottom. Ten thousand gallons of water a minute flow into the spring. The spring is best seen from on observation raft which i forgot to photograph, but all of the photos were taken from the raft. The inset photos include another photo of the tree-lined edge of the pond, a photo of the bottom of the spring and the trout that live in the spring, and two photos that show the turquoise color of the water and the dead trees that have fallen into the edges of the spring.
