Which of the Great Lakes lies entirely within the United States?
• Geography of the five Great Lakes • Which Great Lakes are shared with Canada • Definition of a lake lying entirely within one country
• For each lake in the choices, ask yourself: Does its shoreline touch Canada at any point? • Try to visualize or sketch a simple map of the U.S.–Canada border and mark where each Great Lake sits. • Eliminate any lakes you know form part of the international boundary, then look at what remains.
• Confirm which lakes are boundary waters between the U.S. and Canada. • Check if any lake on the list has all shorelines in U.S. states only. • Be sure not to confuse connected smaller lakes with the primary Great Lakes when deciding.
