March 9, 2013 – MICHIGAN An island has sprung up off the coast of Lake Michigan and this one isn’t made of dirt. ‘It was just a bunch of blocks piled on top of each other and they were welded together with the wind and snow,” Outdoor enthusiast Josh Baker explained. Over the weekend, Baker and his family stumbled across this giant island floating in Lake Michigan outside of the small town of Good Hart. 

 

Sunday, he decided to climb the jagged, 15-foot ice mountain. Once he made it to the top, he noticed the structure was different on the other side. “The side facing the lake was almost sheer, it was pretty neat. So the side I was on was all jumbled and the opposite side was just sheer down to the water,” Baker said. Good Hart General Store Owner Jim Sutherland says this sight is not a new one, but he says it has been many years since he has seen one this big.
