Their names are Basswood, Hermit, Michigan, Stockton, Oak, Outer, Manitou, Ironwood, Cat, Otter, South & North Twin, Rocky, Devils, Bear, Raspberry, York and Sand Islands. Michigan, Outer, Raspberry, Sand, Devils and Long Islands have light houses. The islands were first used by the Ojibwa Indians for hunting, berries, fishing, and wild rice. Ironwood Island has great forests of hardwood trees. Cat Island is excellent for fishing, and Bear Island, in spite of its name is not notorious for having bears.
