![]() Michipicoten Island became a Provincial Park in 1985. The inside of a Michipicoten Agate can be Common Quartz or beautiful agate. Agates on Michipicoten Island are very common in the local bedrock, but they are just for looking at, and are illegal to collect. Most of these carrots I have are pretty much Quartz Crystal, while a few are pretty nice agates, and can be sliced like bread. ![]() These are shockingly refered to as “Carrot Agates”. Michipicoten Agates tend to be either oval shaped or ‘Carrot shaped” like stalactites. An example of Carrot Agate from Michipicoten Island. I now occasionally find one of these Michipicoten Agates in the barn, and make jewelry from it. I live vicariously through Agates I have purchased from a friend in Sault St. No, let’s get real I will NEVER visit Michipicoten Island. I’ve never been to Michipicoten Island, and may never go there. Santa’s vacation home is located there also. I believe that the Duluth Trading Company’s Logo Beaver may have come from there. I understand that there is a healthy population of Woodland Caribou (introduced to Michipicoten Island in 1980) and Beavers seem to be thriving there. Even though Michipicoten Island is the second largest Island within the Great Lakes, it’s a wild and remote place. I’d like to, just because it is so much fun to say. Try as I may, I just can’t work the word “Michipicoten” into my daily vocabulary. The word Michipicoten is an Anglicization of the original Ojibwe word Mishipikwadina, meaning “big bluffs” in Ojibwe, and is a reference to the geography of the nearby Michipicoten River. ![]() I always trust the Internet to be honest…NOT! Since I have never been to Michipecoten Island, I have to use the Internet for research. My middle name is “Sarcasm”, so the winter residents of Michipecoten Island (Mostly Reindeer, and the wolves that eat them) must forgive me in advance for anything I say in this blog also I tend to make stuff up, or factiously write things. I think Michipicoten is an old Indian name meaning “fairly remote place with no satellite TVs”. I have a feeling by the time I’m done typing this blog, I’ll be sick and tired of typing “Michipicoten”. Travellers tip: Visit Wawa and see the giant Canadian Goose. Michipicoten Island in Lake Superior is the 6th largest Island in the Great Lakes, way out west of WaWa (Now you’re asking where the heck is Wawa?) Ontario. They sometimes look really nice shaped and polished! This one is Opaque, but not all are. They seem to be somewhat of a “peeler” agate, prone to flaking. John Marchese from Newberry, MI had several agates including this nice paintstone agate, an interesting moss agate with banding and boytroidal formation, an incredible peeler, and the yellow and red moss agate.ĭick Wheeler from Pike Lake, MI came by with this nice three pounder.įinally, Sally Ahrndt from Skandi, MI was wearing this 100 year old scottish agate broach.I’ve learned that Michipicoten agates are sometimes difficult to polish. She calls it the Brain Agate.ĭonna Sheehan from Cedar, MI showed me this incredible peeler as well as what we called the dudad agate. If not, I'm sure you will let me know.įirst of all, Susie Hales from Clare, MI started off the parade of rocks with this 10pound agate. Hopefully, I have figured out my handwritting and have given credit to the correct people for each of the photos below. I scribbled notes as to who found which agates. All day long people were bringing their rocks and/or agates by for me to examine. ![]() I don't think I have ever looked at as many rocks as I did on that Saturday. But for you rockhounds out there, I figure it is time to post some pictures of agates.Īt the Rock On Agate Show, I was glad that I had my friend, Renee Beaver Stocking, to help with the booth. I have a back log of pictures to post on the blog, most of which I'll get to when I return from Wisconsin. Not only was it the last week of normal museum hours (most of which I worked), but I have been busy trying to make product for the Eagle River, WI Cranberry Festifal. It has been a little crazy this week - even more than normal.

At first these focused on lowering tariffs (customs duties) on imported goods. A ninth round, under the Doha Development Agenda, is now underway. Since GATT’s creation in 1947-48 there have been eight rounds of trade negotiations. From time to time other issues such as red tape and exchange rate policies have also been discussed. The barriers concerned include customs duties (or tariffs) and measures such as import bans or quotas that restrict quantities selectively. ![]() Lowering trade barriers is one of the most obvious means of encouraging trade.
