Captain Thomas Cram made a treaty for passage with Chief Ca-Sha and the band of Ojibwa (Chippewa) near a large tamarack tree at the headwaters of the Brule River. He placed the first marker at this survey point in 1840 - establishing the Wisconsin-Michigan state boundary. Brule Lake forms part of the border between the States of Michigan and Wisconsin and is the headwater of the Brule River. The Brule River is a 52-mile-long river that forms a portion of the boundary between the states of Michigan and Wisconsin. It winds east and southeast until joining with the Michigamme River to form the Menominee River and then flows on into Lake Michigan. The Brule River is stocked with Rainbow, Brook and Brown trout, and there are Smallmouth bass and Northern pike to be caught in the lower sections. The Brule River is famous for canoeing, and has been canoed by four different U.S. presidents. If you love Winter sports, there are the nearby Ge-Che Cross country ski trail and Ski Brule to enjoy.
