DNR Marine Warden Amie Egstad spotted the floating ice - which was covered in resting seagulls - while doing a routine check of commercial nets in the largest of the Great Lakes.
"There was this big iceberg along with other ice packs and bergs floating around backside of Madeline Island area east towards Saxon Harbor," Egstad said.
According to a National Geographic report, the summer temperatures of the Great Lakes are expected to be colder this year because more than 90 percent of the lakes had been covered in ice during this past winter.
