Dramatic footage of large waves crashing into the shores of Lake Superior during a late winter storm on March 16. <br /><br />The video, filmed in northern Minnesota, USA, shows the waves engulfing a pier and crashing into lighthouses, as well as pounding the beach near the railroad and I-35. <br /><br />The filmer, photographer Dawn LaPointe, later wrote online: "As one who loves dramatic weather and the power of nature, I spent a couple hours on the shores with my camera capturing the Great Lake's power in photos and video. <br /><br />"The wave heights were likely 10-15 feet." <br /><br />"Keep in mind that this is not the ocean; this is the largest freshwater lake in the world, the great Lake Superior," she continued. <br /><br />"The temperature was a balmy 2C by the lake, so there was little snow by the lake. <br /><br />"It was a winter wonderland a few miles inland up the hill with about eight inches of heavy wet snow coating the landscape."
