Description

The ore freighter Herbert C Jackson makes its way across icy Lake Superior into Marquette Harbor, Marquette, Michigan, to deliver ore. In the winter of 2013-2014, Lake Superior froze solid to a depth of six feet for the first time in over 50 years. This image was taken in late May 2014, and the ice was still so thick that the Coast Guard had to send in icebreakers to clear a path for the freighters before they could dock.
