Opened in 1957, the bridge (familiarly known as "Big Mac" and "Mighty Mac") is the third longest in total suspension in the world[3] and the longest suspension bridge between anchorages in the Western hemisphere.

According to the oral stories and traditions of the Great Lakes Woodland Indians, the turtle is a powerful symbol. One legend details how the turtle's back provided a base for the first land that was formed in the midst of the great waters. Mackinac Island takes its name from a word in the Ottawa language meaning "Great turtle". Even today, turtles hold power and meaning in our lives. Turtles are an important link in the web of our living planet and it is up to everyone to ensure they remain.
