French explorer Jean Nicolet, 36, makes an expedition to Lake Michigan and the Wisconsin region, the first white venture into that area. Brought to Canada by Champlain in 1618, Nicolet has lived among the Huron of the upper Ottawa River, and he now travels west in search of furs and of a Northwest Passage. Nicolet lands at what will later be Green Bay, where the Menominees have a settlement at a time when most indigenous tribes are being pushed westward by the Ottawa, Huron, and other eastern tribes. So vast is Lake Michigan that Nicolet believes he has reached Asia and is disappointed to learn otherwise. |
