MUSKEGON DUNES ARE STILL ACTIVE: This picture taken in the moving sands area of Muskegon State Park shows typical phases of dunes action. At the right and left are amphitheaters formed by blow outs. In the top center are hollows and cuts made by the wind. At the top of the amphitheater to the right is a break in the vegetation that formerly held the dune in place and sands are flowing over the crest to engulf the forest growth beyond. The pine tree on the ridge at left center appears doomed not through burial but through undermining by wind erosion. Efforts have been made to hold the sands with beach grass, as can be seen in the foreground. Wherever the winds can get at the sands such efforts suffer defeat.

THESE ARE MODERN DUNES: Some of the dunes found in the Warren massif date back many centuries to ancient lakes that were deeper and extended farther inland than Lake Michigan. This dune, in spite of the forest growth upon it, is a "modern" dune being a fairly recent creation of the blowing sands.

SAUGATUCK DUNES AND KALAMAZOO LAGOON: Here is a view of the Mt. Baldhead massif from the Lake Michigan side, showing a lagoon of Kalamazoo river in the foreground. The Baldhead massif is at the right and at the left are the dunes north of the river dominated by Pelican Peak. The river flows between the two sets of sand hills. Once the river circled Baldhead and entered the lake through a channel immediately at the left of the row of rotting piles. The new, more direct channel is hidden behind a peninsula at the left of the picture. The vanished town of Singapore was near here.
