Ossineke, Michigan

Ossineke is an unincorporated community and census-designated place in Alpena County in the U.S. state of Michigan.

The image stones were thought to embody the spirit of Chief Shinggabaw, who promised to return there after death.

After they were stolen by a rival tribe, the Great Spirit put them back and destroyed the raiding party.

Indian Trails provides daily intercity bus service between St. Ignace and Bay City, Michigan.
