L'Anse, L'Anse Reservation

Located in the western portion of the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, the Chippewa CDP (census designated place) of l'anse, is located about two miles north of the white city of L'Anse, Michigan, which lies partially on the Chippewa L'Anse Reservation. Using google earth i counted about 120 to 130 housing units in the settlement which is partially situated next to Keweenaw Bay. Though i am not certain that this settlement is in fact an Indian settlement, i will for the sake of the Chippewa's of the L'Anse Reservation, claim that it is in fact a Chippewa settlement. Elevation of the settlement is 825 feet above sea level. Since the settlement has probably around 125 housing units, i will assume that the population of the settlement is between 375 and 500, because Chippewa settlements tend to have average household sizes of between 3.0 and 4.0 persons per household. Most of the population is Native American. Please don't get this settlement i refer to as L'Anse, confused with the larger white L'Anse, Michigan settlement located two miles to the south. Below are several links to pictures of the beautiful Chippewa settlement of L'Anse.
