Lake Huron Circle Tour signage along Highway 17 at Bruce Mines. The roads circling the Lakes Superior, Huron, Michigan and Erie were designated as tourist routes, indicated by signs such as these. While other jurisdictions such as Michigan still post the signs with a degree of consistency, the examples of this signage on the Ontario segments have become fewer and further between.
