Lore

With a surface of almost 100,000 square miles, the five Great Lakes are a major landmark in North America. Steamers from various companies offer their services to cross the Lakes Superior, Michigan, Huron, Erie, and Ontario, docking in the numerous harbors of the region. Enjoy the sunset on Lake Michigan from the harbor of Chicago, discover the brisk beauty of Lake Superior, and follow the secret paths of the Wyandot to victory...

Trivia

  • This map is set between in 1970 (After Thunder Bay was formed and not quite the end of steam), making it the third most modern map, behind Maerklin and World)
  • This is the FIRST map to have an actual typo (Perry Sound should be Parry Sound), but people on BoardGameGeek started crying about quality control anyway, especially after the Pennsylvania scoring fiasco.
