Grand Sable Dunes Hike

Now that most of the snow has melted we are able to access and hike the Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore.  The other night Jamey, Lois, and I hiked up into the dunes.

At the beginning of the trail there is a sink hole that Jamey explored.


Plants are starting to emerge from the forest floor, including a few miniature flowers.  Soon there will be flowers everywhere.


Into the dunes....

 

Ice out on the big lake....


There are still patches of snow in the dunes.


Au Sable Lighthouse....


It may look like liquid water, but the point is actually surrounded by ice.






Jamey found an arrow in the dunes.








Weird mushrooms...


We visited the cross in the dunes....


It was a great evening hike and picnic.
