Dead River (Michigan)
The Dead River (French: ''Rivière des Morts'') is a 〔U.S. Geological Survey. National Hydrography Dataset high-resolution flowline data. (The National Map ), accessed January 3, 2012〕 river in Marquette County, Michigan.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.glc.org/tributary/documents/DeadFact.pdf )〕 Its watershed is approximately in size.〔 The river flows southeasterly from western Marquette County to its mouth on Lake Superior.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.ferc.gov/industries/hydropower/safety/projects/silver-lake/proj-des.pdf )〕
, five dams existed on the river:〔 Silver Lake Dam, Hoist Dam, McClure Dam, Forestville Dam, and Tourist Park Dam. Hoist and McClure are hydroelectric dams.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.michigan.gov/documents/deq/deq-p2ca-schwalbach-lessonsfromsilverlake_281131_7.pdf )〕 Silver Lake and Tourist Park failed in May 2003.
Historically, its name is derived from the Ojibwe ''Gaa-waakwimiigong-neyaashi-ziibi'' (recorded as "Kah way komi gong nay aw shay Sibi", meaning "Peninsula by the Roads to the Land of the Dead River") or ''Ne-waakwimiinaang'' (recorded as "Ne ko me non" meaning "by the Peninsula for Road to the Land of the Dead"), both referencing its mouth being near Presque Isle Point, a cape on Lake Superior. Additionally, earlier maps record this river either in French as "''Rivière des Morts''", "''Rivière du Mort''", or "''Rivière au Paresseux''", or in English as "Deadman's River". The current name for this river in Ojibwe is either ''Giiwe-gamigong-neyaashi-ziibi'' (Return-by-shore Peninsula River) or ''Niboowaagaming'' ("At the Death's Shores").
