Bayfield Live Cam

Bayfield is a city located in Bayfield County, Wisconsin, USA, on the shore of Lake Superior. The area was originally inhabited by the Ojibwe Native American tribe, who called the region "Gichi-onigami," meaning "Great Sea" in their language. The Ojibwe were skilled fishermen and traders, and they established a vibrant trade network throughout the region.

In the early 1800s, European settlers began to arrive in the area, attracted by the rich fishing and lumber resources. The town of Bayfield was established in 1856, and it quickly became an important center for shipping and commerce on Lake Superior. The town grew rapidly, and by the late 1800s, it had become a major port for shipping lumber and other natural resources from the surrounding area.
