When it comes to freshwater lakes, Lake Superior in the USA /Canada is the largest lake by surface area. Lake Superior is known as one of the great lakes, consisting of 5 connected lakes on the border between the US and Canada. Despite having such a large surface area, Lake Baikal in Russia is so deep that by volume, it is equivalent to approximately all 5 great lakes combined.

Lake Superior really is awesome I’m from Michigan so I used to drive up there a lot, though now that I’m in the Midwest I don’t get up there often.

It’s very beautiful though, I recommend going camping by Lake Superior if you ever get the chance!
