HUGE Waves on Lake Superior // Spring Snow Storm // #13 

They're like thus all over the lake .just imagine the Fitzgerald out there getting hammered by these waves constant..frightening though .the great lakes are a wonder to behold, but very dangerous too ..rest in peace all you sailors who have lost their life's on the lakes. God bless You....peace .✝️

I live in Michigan, it's a beautiful State!!! Lake Superior is just Stunning, you could watch it for hour's!! The Pictured Rock's, are just breathtaking!!! The Mackinaw Bridge, is UNBELIEVEABLE!!! Up North, there is nothing like it!!!! 🍁🍁🍁🍁🌊🌊🌊🌊...🥀🥀🥀🥀....

I absolutely LOVE Lady Superior storms. I've camped through a few...and WOOOOHOOOOO! 😁😁😁🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

The Wreck of the Edmonds Fitzgerald brought me here. I love that song.

Unlike the ocean with waves, Lake Superior behaves like a bathtub with swells and waves that move in totally indiscriminate patterns. Violence.

The power of the Great Lakes is incredible

Stunning video 👍👍👍❤️❤️ thanks for catching those waves and sharing. I could watch this for hours.

I could watch this all day, just stunning!!!! 🌊🌊🌊🌊🌲🌲🌲🌲....

I see some people comment that these waves aren't as crazy as they're described to be, but you have to realize that they aren't predictable, cyclical waves. They're random and moving in all directions. Like another commenter said, its like a giant bathtub, rather than an open ocean. Perfect analogy. I've lived in MI all my life and used to camp in the UP every summer with my family. We went to Porcupine Mountains to camp and hike one summer in 1997 when i was 7 years old. At about 8AM, i woke up before everyone else at our campsite and could hear the distant sound of crashing waves from the shore. I decided to sneak away from the tent and go check it out. The shore was littered with jagged boulders and everything was slippery. It was really windy and overcast that day. The waves were slamming into the rocks and sending spray everywhere. It was deafening. I got too close to the shore and a wave crashed into the rocks i was standing on and it swept me off my feet and into the lake. I began to panic and scramble to get back on the rocks, but kept losing my grip from all the slimy, algae-covered rocks at the water's edge. It was an immediate drop-off of at least 5 feet. When i went in, i completely submerged and couldn't touch the bottom. Luckily, a man that was nearby on the beach saw me fall in and rushed over to pull me out before i drowned. The conditions weren't as bad as this video depicts, but the chop was still severe enough to throw me all over the place and nearly pulled me out into the lake with the surging currents. Terrifying ordeal. That man saved my life! When i got back to my campsite freezing and soaking wet and told my parents what happened (never told them how much trouble i was in - only that i slipped and fell), they whipped my ass so hard for going out there alone, I wanted to be back in the water 😂 And they did it for good reason. Now i respect this lake, especially after it took my dad and brother from me 12 years later. Be careful out there folks! Lake Superior can overpower even the strongest swimmers with ease.

Love how the waves curl, the whole process.

Wow, amazing! We live near the lower Great Lakes of Erie and Ontario, but do not see sights like this, even in storms. This rivals the ocean.

Those black spruce trees are hit by waves much taller than the trees and turn to upright icicles. It is observed that black spruce is the only tree that grows in stands right to the the treeline at the tundra that is much farther than Lake Superior. Even though there are forests that are diverse in tree species in the transition and boreal forests beside Lake Superior, black spruce stands are the only species that can tolerate the harsh, icy conditions at the Lake Superior shore.

This is beautiful. Been to the East China sea and the Philippine sea

Wow! Amazing power! The lake is a giant rock tumbler! ☺

The great lakes are so beautiful

My best friend, You Great Good... !!! I wish you every day of your development. Best Relaxing +thumb up3!

The beauty of the Lord is awesome. Incredible photography. 😮

Amazing and powerful ... no wonder why several bulk freighters broke in half over the 20 century and others simply vanished all during november gale. Including hundreds of life . rip

The legend lives on from the Chippewa on down Of the big lake they called Gitche Gumee The lake, it is said, never gives up her dead When the skies of November turn gloomy With a load of iron ore twenty-six thousand tons more Than the Edmund Fitzgerald weighed empty That good ship and true was a bone to be chewed When the gales of November came early The ship was the pride of the American side Coming back from some mill in Wisconsin As the big freighters go, it was bigger than most With a crew and good captain well seasoned Concluding some terms with a couple of steel firms When they left fully loaded for Cleveland And later that night when the ship's bell rang Could it be the north wind they'd been feelin'? The wind in the wires made a tattle-tale sound And a wave broke over the railing And every man knew, as the captain did too T'was the witch of November come stealin' The dawn came late and the breakfast had to wait When the gales of November came slashin' When afternoon came it was freezin' rain In the face of a hurricane west wind When suppertime came, the old cook came on deck sayin' "Fellas, it's too rough to feed ya" At seven PM, a main hatchway caved in, he said "Fellas, it's been good to know ya" The captain wired in he had water comin' in And the good ship and crew was in peril And later that night when his lights went outta sight Came the wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald Does any one know where the love of God goes When the waves turn the minutes to hours? The searchers all say they'd have made Whitefish Bay If they'd put fifteen more miles behind her They might have split up or they might have capsized They may have broke deep and took water And all that remains is the faces and the names Of the wives and the sons and the daughters Lake Huron rolls, Superior sings In the rooms of her ice-water mansion Old Michigan steams like a young man's dreams The islands and bays are for sportsmen And farther below Lake Ontario Takes in what Lake Erie can send her And the iron boats go as the mariners all know With the gales of November remembered In a musty old hall in Detroit they prayed In the maritime sailors' cathedral The church bell chimed 'til it rang twenty-nine times For each man on the Edmund Fitzgerald The legend lives on from the Chippewa on down Of the big lake they called Gitche Gumee Superior, they said, never gives up her dead When the gales of November come early

Great day to surf😂

Hard to believe it's a lake and not the ocean

looks like a 2 metre swell with a 5 second period

And it wasn't even November. Yikes.

Its scary enough here in Louisiana. This looks worse than the Gulf of Mexico in a hurricane!!
