Bloody Lake
Bloody Lake is a lake in Murray County, in the U.S. state of Minnesota. The name Bloody Lake commemorates the Dakota War of 1862. However, there is an alternate hydronymy: that it was named before 1862, for the tannins produced by plants on the lake's shoreline that gave it a "rusty color".- Lake
