Clam Lake Canal

(

• ... that when Clam Lake Canal is frozen over in the first part of a Michigan winter the lakes on each side are unfrozen and then when the lakes freeze over the canal in-between is unfrozen and flows?

• Source - Ref #6 (Jager 1995) - Ever since the canal was constructed in the late 1880s, people have wondered why the canal freezes over when the cold weather comes, while the lakes remain unfrozen. Later, when the lakes freeze over, the canal thaws out and remains unfrozen for the rest of the winter.
