This great body of water was created when an evil spirit was in pursuit of an innocent Native American. Attempting to aid the pursued, the Great Spirit gave him a branch of leaves with the assurance that each leaf that dropped would produce a body of water that the evil spirit would have to cross. But during the chase the whole branch was dropped in fright, creating this great lake.
