The Gales of November is very real on the Great Lakes, known as the “Month of Storms.”Some 550 wrecks lie on the bottom of Lake Superior, at least 200 along Superior's Shipwreck Coast, a treacherous 80-Mile stretch with no safe harbor between Munising and Whitefish Point. On November 10, 1975, the Edmund Fitzgerald, a 728 foot freighter went down in a storm described as both blizzard and hurricane taking all 29 crew members to their grave. Made famous by the Gordon Lightfoot song, the wreck has remained a mystery for fifty years.In this episode of the Lake Superior Podcast, Walt Lindala and Frida Waara talk with maritime historian, author and lecturer Fred Stonehouse about that tragic night and what we have learned since her sinking and how her legacy has shaped maritime safety. Key TakeawaysThe Edmund Fitzgerald Sank Fifty Years Ago — But Its Mystery EnduresMaritime historian Fred Stonehouse recounts how the 729-foot freighter Edmund Fitzgerald sank on November 10, 1975, about 15 miles northwest of Whitefish Point. The ship went down without a distress signal, and all 29 crew members were lost—leaving one of the Great Lakes' most haunting mysteries.A Storm Described as Both a Blizzard and a HurricaneThe night the Fitzgerald went down, Lake Superior raged with winds exceeding 75 miles per hour—stronger than a Category 1 hurricane. As Fred explains, the storm “exceeded 75 miles an hour in wind, and a cat one hurricane's only 74.”Hubris and Hard Lessons on the Great Lakes“This was a time when ships had the attitude that they can't sink.”Fred reflects on how the culture of Great Lakes shipping in the 1970s—driven by confidence and schedules—left little room for caution. The Fitzgerald's loss changed that mindset forever, ushering in a new era of safety, respect, and humility toward Lake Superior.The Edmund Fitzgerald at 50: A Tragedy That Changed Everything“The world had changed in that instance when the Fitzgerald disappeared.” The tragedy sparked widespread reforms—from new navigation technology and onboard stress monitoring systems to emergency response protocols. The Ship That Became a Legend“She has sailed from fact into legend of the Great Lakes.”Fred explains how the Edmund Fitzgerald became immortalized through Gordon Lightfoot's ballad, cultural memory, and even merchandise—from ornaments to craft beer. The ship's story transcended history, turning into one of the most iconic Great Lakes legends.An Underwater Graveyard and a Place of ReverenceFred describes the Fitzgerald's final resting place, protected by the Canadian government and closed to divers since 1989. It remains a solemn memorial to the men who perished that night and a reminder of Lake Superior's power.Connect With Us:Lake Superior Podcast Page – https://nplsf.org/podcastFacebook – https://www.facebook.com/NationalParksOfLakeSuperiorFoundationLinkedIn – https://www.linkedin.com/company/national-parks-of-lake-superior-foundationSponsors:Cafe Imports – Minneapolis-based importers of specialty green coffees since 1993, focused on sustainability.

Hello Colorado Rapids fans. Well that loss to Sporting KC wasn't fun. Holding The High Line is back to ruminate for too long about it. The guys recap their travels over Labor Day weekend. Matt went to the family cabin on Michigan to visit the Great Lakes Shipwreck Museum at Whitefish Point, in the Upper Peninsula. He nerded out about the Edmund Fitzgerald. Mark had a less fun weekend. Shout out to the 29th Infantry. Oh, and we talk about the Leagues Cup Final, which was boring and uneventful match and postgame. Don Garber, suspend Luis Suarez for the rest of 2025, you coward. Then the guys discuss the 4-2 loss at Sporting KC. Rafael Santos, Paxten Aaronson, and Rob Holding made their first starts for Colorado. There were defensive mistakes a plenty. Rafael Navarro missed ANOTHER penalty. There were some good attacking sequences. Then there was an eight minute collapse in the second half. What's not working tactically with this team? Why are they so inconsistent? Will they find continuity? What does all this mean for their playoff hopes and the future of Chris Armas? We try to find some answers. Then the guys do some house keeping with updates on Alexi Manyoma and Josh Atencio. We then look ahead to Colorado's final five games and what they can and need to do give that schedule. Oh and here is that Brian Jennings interview article on Rob Holding.

For many, it's little more than a lost freighter at the bottom of Lake Superior, but author and former legislator Tom Nelson sees the Edmund Fitzgerald as perhaps the most apt metaphor of the late 20th century — an economy that put shareholder profits ahead of workers' prosperity, and empty populist promises from candidates in both parties. We'll talk to him about his new book that draws those parallels.
